From the producer of Goldfinger comes a film widely recognized as one of the greatest spy thriller of all time. The Ipcress file is the first film in the series of Harry Palmer mysteries, based on the bestseller by Len Deighton, that made Michael Caine a star. It is the height of the cold war, and ex-thief Harry Palmer (Michael Caine), now reluctantly working as a secret agent, has been called in to investigate a strange occurrence among a number of leading scientists. It seems the scientists have been kidnapped, but reappear only days after the kidnapping, brainwashed and useless.

On January 20, 1942, with the tide of war turning in favor of the Allies, a small group of SS officers, government ministers, and Nazi officials met near Berlin to decide the fate of Europe's Jews. Based on the only surviving record of that meeting, Conspiracy is a powerful combination of historical reconstruction and speculation that attempts to offer new insights into a pivotal moment in history. The cast does a marvelous job of fleshing out the documentary evidence to create convincing characters.
