TV drama.
Show: Climax!
An American secret agent is on a mission to foil a Soviet agent's attempt to revert his financial predicament through gambling.
This is utterly mediocre. I watched it in September, after having reread the book (of which this is an unfaithful adaptation). I was not even going to write about it, but, in order to be thorough, changed my mind. There is always some pleasure to be had by watching the performances -- it is practically impossible to find an English-spoken production of that period which doesn't have good performances -- but there isn't much else.
