From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Funeral in Berlin is a novel by Len Deighton, probably the best of the so-called Harry Palmer spy novels. It is also a film that follows up upon the characters in The Ipcress File. The third film -- Billion Dollar Brain -- became a bit silly in its approach. Michael Caine returned to his Harry Palmer role in Bullet to Beijing and Midnight in St. Petersburg.
The subject matter is dated, but the characters -- Johnny Vulkan, Colonel Stok -- remain memorable.
