High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Ipcress File is a 1965 British espionage film directed by Sidney J. Furie and starring Michael Caine, Guy Doleman, and Nigel Green. The screenplay by Bill Canaway and James Doran was based on Len Deighton's 1962 novel, The IPCRESS File. It has won critical acclaim and a BAFTA award for best British film. In 1999 it was included at number 59 on the BFI list of the 100 best British films of the twentieth century. A top scientist called Radcliffe (Aubrey Richards) is kidnapped from a train and his security escort killed. A senior British intelligence officer, Colonel Ross (Guy Doleman), sends for Harry Palmer (Michael Caine), who up to that point has been engaged in a tedious stakeout. Ross tells Palmer that he is being transferred to a department headed by Major Dalby (Nigel Green). Radcliffe's disappearance appears to be part of a brain drain; seventeen top British scientists have been taken, then returned with their minds somehow wiped of technical knowledge. Ross introduces Palmer to Dalby as a good man but insubordinate.
