The difficult-to-manage American novelist Andrew Craig arrives in Stockholm to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature, where he notices something peculiar about the prizewinner for Physics. Lightweight though complicated international thriller, comparable to Hitchcock's Topaz (1969). Good performance from Paul Newman, successful at the box office.
