Any idea what movie I'm on about

[B235r]

There must be some movie buffs here who have more knowledge than me, back when we had sky TV I used to watch this old 60's or maybe 70's movie on TCM used to come round in the rotation every few months late at night

The opening credits was a man sticks on his driving gloves & gets in a red convertible sports car & proceeds to drive it like he stole it down a mountain road, cliffs on one side with the ocean the other (with the road cut in the side) tunnels & concrete barriers can't remember the rest of the movie or even who was in it

Anyone have any ideas

Initial though was the Italian Job, but he’s not wearing gloves…

I can't think of what the actual film might have been but could it have been Highway One through Big Sur?

It was just an excuse to listen to Matt Munro

Vanishing Point?

One of the Dirty Harry movies?

Play Misty For Me ?

All red convertibles between 1965-1975 in movies. Mentions red in the images even if the car isn't so there's a few extras.

I think it's Carry On The Buses, where Stan gets mistaken for a mafia boss when the family go on holiday to Sicily.

You could try posting it on the A What's that Film Thread?

It sounds like True Lies, but obviously that film wasn't from that era.

Charles Hawtrey was excellent as the godfather-type character, it’s my favourite Carry On The Buses film. Carry On The Doctor On The Buses is a close second.
