At one point Modesty Blaise is shown looking at copies of the real-life Modesty Blaise comic strip, which originally appeared in the London Evening Standard. moreGoofs:
Revealing mistakes: Modesty's body double in the knife fight scene between her, Willy and the two villains is obviously much bulkier and taller than she is. moreSoundtrack:

This has to be my all time favourite film. I have watched it over and over again and cannot find fault with it (although if I do, I learn to love it too). I think it has something to do with the film's innate spontaneity. It creates a joyous sense of creativity and freeness on the actors and the film-makers part (with Vitti and Stamp at the high of their 'New Wave' popularity). Modesty Blaise is total fun and total filmatic glamour in all it's technicolour radiance. It is a sad fact that there is not a filmmaker alive today that could inject a film with this sort of cheeky decadence and lightheartedness and get away with it. A film of it's time that I personally hope with resonate through the ages.
