Tyne Daly is notable as a CIA staffer. Remick's teaming with Bronson is a graceful one for both players.

To describe Telefon as synthetic is to take it more seriously than it's taken by anyone connected with it.

Rating: 3/5 --
The ludicrous relationship between these two spies almost destroys what little credibility the story has, but director Siegel keeps their screen time to a minimum and instead concentrates on propelling the narrative at top speed.

Following Telefon is about as thrilling as being kept on hold for the better part of the day.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
This Cold War thriller may not have the most complicated story, but it's curiously effective and has been been surprisingly influential, a nice companion piece to The Manchurian Candidate.

Apart from a certain energy evident in the cutting, you'd never know it was the work of Don Siegel, a generally excellent action director.
