So Raquel Welch was the big star here, and apparently kept everyone else waiting while she did her make-up. Edward Robinson and Robert Wagner were also pretty big stars by then, and told her they were sick of waiting for her. Anyway... Vittorio De Sica is Cesare, mafia king, who gets held up by young amateur Harry (Robert Wagner). But Cesare is broke, and his family and friends just don't care. When Cesare hears that his family won't help, he is insulted, and tells Harry that he will personally help him get 5 million dollars. By stealing platinum on a train. And the caper is ON! Directed by Ken Annakin.. he had directed part of "Longest Day" and "Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines." was nominated for best oscar for "Men in their Flying Machines"! VERY lightweight drama... silly but fun. A heist in italy. Was probably a lot of fun for the cast to make... when they weren't waiting for Raquel W. Sadly, Benny (Godfrey Cambridge ) died of a heart attack at 43.
