@Melanie Buchan If I hadn't seen this scene, I would have had no idea how to make coffee at my friend's place. This was the only way she had to make coffee. 😉
@@OliverJazzz Palmer may well have been a lower class, insolent, insubordinate scrote... but he knew how to enjoy good food. Col. Ross, "Palmer, why don't you take those other mushrooms. They ARE cheaper." Palmer,"Yes Sir, but *these* ones taste better." 😉
Not unusual today in England though a French Press is not the best. In the books Harry Palmer was Northerner from Burnley with a completely different accent. 👍🏻🏴
I like the movie, but the music theme of the TV Series is just mindblowing. No offense to good old Barry, who wrote the most tremendous themes of all times. 😊
Amazon music dropped the OST from their library when the TV series soundtrack became available..it's like ditching Dark side of the moon for a James Last album.
He is reading the Sun in the days when it was still a broadsheet. He turns to page 3. No bare breasts in those pre-Murdock days, but instead horseracing. Nice.
I think Joe Cole delivered a credible character in the Ipcress File with subtle nuanced differences. The Joe Cole version of the Ipcress File may well prove to be of the same enduring quality as the epic Harry Saltzman version starring Michael Caine. In a way though it is a shame that the film industry is producing yet another remake of a classic thriller. If success is to breed success the film industry must not polish old gems but mine for new ones. In the espionage genre, an example of such a new gem is Beyond Enkription, the first fact based spy thriller in The Burlington Files series. I only mention that because, coincidentally, some critics have likened its protagonist to a "posh Harry Palmer" and the first novel in the series is indisputably Deightonesque. It's worth checking out this enigmatic and elusive thriller … though I say so myself! Not being a remake it may have eluded you.
@Kieran Woods Sorry, I don't speak or write English... Il bello della pizza (come del caffè...) è che si può mangiarla (bere... per il caffè) come meglio si vuole ... come accade in ogni istante in tutto il mondo... L'agente Palmer, inglese, prepara e beve il caffè (e probabilmente mangia la pizza...)... all'inglese... Io, italiano, di solito preparo e bevo il caffè... alla maniera italiana... e ugualmente mangio la pizza... all'italiana... Ognuno faccia come desidera ... Io di certo io non piango e non piangerò per questo... Evviva la differenza...! 🙂
@@hannotn because it's true,just look at the points of the new movies .tv series ,lucky to find anything above 5 . l look for new things to watch and im disappointed .
this is one of the coolest sequences ever to open a film
Almost the same morning routine as in " Funeral in Berlin " (1966). There were 5 "Harry Palmer" movies...
New year eve to New Year’s Day on BBC1 in the 80s ,, always on as a kid .. classic
The REAL James Bond.... what a performance making a morning cuppa... you never see Mr Bond having to do this!
Because Mr Palmer is not Mr Bond.

Tbh wake up in every dawn I always remember these scene, especially when my body energy doesn't burn up yet hehehe very memorable opening credit 😂
Immenso Michael caine Harry palmer adoro la saga di Harry palmer..ipcress e ..♥️♥️
It always bothers me that he pushes the plunger down immediately rather than waiting a few minutes. That's going to be a really weak cup of coffee.
Always thought that myself. It used to drive my dad mental every time we’d see this.
If he waited any longer, the credits would have finished.
Depends on how strong the coffee grains are🤔👍
@@michaelalbert9299 They could have used an edit to convey the passage of time, as they do at 1:02 while he's changing out of his pyjamas
I thought it was pretty stingy on quantity, as well as the lack of brewing time.

there is no comparison. this music is god tier. not using it in the new streaming show is moronic.

The broadsheet "Daily Herald" was renamed "The Sun" and became a tabloid in 1969.

Michael Caine is an icon, Joe Cole is a c... and so are you, c...
Never in 1000000 years.

@julie heywood
I'm going to wait and make up my own mind.
Thank you for your input though.
☺️🌷
Give it ago, I really enjoyed it. Although Michael Caine was brilliant in it.
That is the most quintessential RUclips quote ever.... I don't like anything new or different; everything was better in my day!
