Our Man Flint
Cheesier than Stilton and campier than Austin Powers could ever dream to be, but I love it. Coburn is superb and Jerry Goldsmith's score is magnificent. 60's spies didn't get much better than this.
The UK releases are marred by a BBFC cut and one that I feel particularly strongly about. Avoid like the plague and buy the US release instead.

Fully agree. So many people turned down the role of Nicholson (Laurence Olivier, John Gielgud, even Charles Laughton) but nobody could have played it like Guinness.
