Anybody Ever See "The Wrecking Crew" ?
1969 007-style spy flick starring Dean Martin as Matt Helm, who is a spy who boozes, smokes, boozes, chases women, & boozes. Had a BEVY of late-Sixties B & C list pulchritude-Elke Sommer, Nancy Kwan, Tina Louise, & in her last role, Sharon Tate. The theme song is AWFUL, yet almost irresistably catchy, in a very late Sixties-Middle-Of-The-Road/Easy Listening-Hugo Montenegro-way. The then 45-year-old Martin kinda comes off as a letcher chasing 'tang half his age, & being besotted the whole time. For you gearheads, there's some good shots of a then-new Continental Mark 3, & one of those pagoda-roof Mercedes sports cars.
