The opening titles on "Dexter" totally copied this! I watched this in my screenwriting class today (loved it), and as soon as I saw and heard this sequence, Dexter came to mind. What an influential film this was! And of course the music!
One of my favourite film intro sequences. Some nice, clever touches like the fact he doesn't use instant coffee, he reads the broadsheets and he appeared slightly more concerned with finding the bracelet than his gun. Just those simple acts say more about the character than endless pages of exposition.

Brilliantly shot by Sidney J. Furie, the whole film is so captivating to look at.

Brilliant film with an iconic theme and soundtrack. So pleased it's been re- released. Got the magnificent 'box set'. ;-)
