...Trevor Howard, a masterful international dope smuggler, for the guidance of Victor Mature, a dopey sleuth inexplicably praised by his Narcotics Division chief as "the best man we've got." To make himself even easier to follow, Howard drags along with him a red herring called Anita Ekberg. And he goes on a real Crook's Tour-from Manhattan to a kaleidoscopic blur of bars, boudoirs and bawdy hotels in London, Rome, Naples and Athens-all genuine-location stuff, reeled off at such a frenzied pace that it rouses longings for the good old days when movies were...
