The Double Man is a 1967 British spy film directed by Franklin Schaffner.[1] Its plot is very loosely based on the critically acclaimed 1958 novel Legacy of a Spy by Henry S. Maxfield.[2] As in the novel, much of the action takes place in the Austrian Alps.[3] The film stars Yul Brynner as a CIA agent investigating his son's fatal "accident": although he learns a few things from others, he slowly is convinced something else is happening and discovers a fiendish Russian plan.[4]
