About Danger in the Middle East
A criminal making plans to pull off one big score before he retires, comes into possession of secret papers worth a fortune, but dies while attempting the hit. His wife takes those papers for herself, while discovering there are rival criminals, a powerful organization and a sleazy blackmailer.
Directed by Michel Clément, Umberto Scarpelli, Danger in the Middle East leans on a strong ensemble — Françoise Arnoul, Rosanna Schiaffino, Michel Piccoli — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1960.
