Well worth seeking out if you've never seen it. CathD is right about the blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearance of Michael Caine, although it wasn't his first film. His first credited role was in "A Hill in Korea" in 1956. A sadly overlooked film, compared to many of a similar ilk and time. Well worth seeking out if you’ve never seen it.
