Kaleidoscope (1966)
Director: Jack Smight
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Its tricksy flashiness conjured by its title, this Swinging London caper features Beatty as a playboy gambler (who's contrived to mark the printing plates at a playing-card factory) being manipulated into collaring a dope smuggler for the Yard. Down the credit list, Jane Birkin features as an 'exquisite thing': just about par for the course from Hollywood-on-Thames.Author: PT
