This is the first time I ever watched it.  Showed up on YouTube Movies and I decided I have heard about this movie enough times over the years that maybe I should watch it.  It took 3 days of watching a little at a time to get through it.  Definitely had some twists and turns and few things I just didn't understand.

Great movie with some poorly dated bits. Worth the watch just to see Sinatra karate.

They did a reboot that was okay but not great. IMO of course.

Great movie.  So much irony it's almost a black comedy.  I think it was John Frankenheimer's first movie.

One can certainly draw some parallels to it.
