Movie review - "A Man Could Get Killed" (1966) **

A spy spoof - yawn - about an American businessman who gets mistaken for an agent and is caught up in a diamond smuggling ring. He's played by James Garner, who was presumably thought to be too old to play Sandra Dee's love interest so hooks up with femme fettle-but-good Melinda Mecouri while Dee (investigating agent I think she's supposed to be) romances Tony Franciosa. Neither romantic team works, Garner is uncomfortable, Dee looks hot (tanned and blonde), there are too many British character actors for a film shot in Portugal. Dull.
