Synopsis
The Assassination Bureau (1969) is a British adventure comedy you can watch online on iFILM. Basil Dearden built it from Jack London's unfinished novel about a guild of killers who murder for a cause.
London, 1908. Suffragette journalist Sonya Winter tracks down a secret firm that assassinates in the name of justice and commissions the death of its own chairman, Ivan Dragomiloff. Rather than run, he turns the contract into a wager: his board members must kill him before he picks them off one by one. The chase tears across Europe through brothels, bombs and a zeppelin. Oliver Reed and Diana Rigg spar with obvious glee.
The film struts between spy thriller and costume farce, blowing up lavish interiors with a wink. Telly Savalas and Curd Jürgens supply the polish. It clicks for anyone who enjoys a pre-Bond-spoof period romp. Stream The Assassination Bureau (1969) online on iFILM.
