Andrew Wyke (Laurence Olivier) is regarded as one of the world's foremost authors of mystery novels. Wyke is also a fanatic game player who has converted his magnificent 16th century manor into a gallery of robots, performing dolls, dart boards, chess sets and mazes. One afternoon Wyke invites Milo Tindle (Michael Caine), a former hairdresser who now owns a chain of beauty parlours, to join him for cocktails. At first, Milo enjoys his visit – until he is drawn into a web of intrigue and gamesmanship inspired by Andrew Wyke that spirals out of both men's hands. This playful but gripping thriller written by Anthony Shaffer (The Wicker Man, Hitchcock's Frenzy) never lets go of the viewer and boasts a pair of stellar performances by two great British actors.
