Gerald Otley, a petty thief and garbage rummager, wakes up one morning, after a drunken night on the town, and finds that he is wanted by the police for murder. And that is only the beginning. While being pursued for a crime he did not commit, he is kidnapped by a group of criminals who suspect him of being involved with double agents. Otley manages to escape, but cannot avoid getting into one near-fatal crisis after another, as police and foreign agents chase after him. (imdb)

The movie is filmed in the typical realistic style of British kitchen sink drama, but the plot comes straight out of cheap 60s espionage novels. It's a mix that should clash, but surprisingly works. The realistic film style grounds the convoluted spy plot, while those spy elements keeps it from becoming another serious British new wave drama .It's the dry wry dialogue which produce the most laughs. Tom Courtenay does a fine job as the charismatic title character.
