The Black Windmill (1974)



..The Black Windmill is a fine unsung film w/ a dynamite triple shot cast in Michael Caine, John Vernon & Donald Pleasence sporting a moustache that I wanted to ride all night long.  John Vernon kidnaps Michael Caine kid holding him for ransom.  Like all good Brits in crisis Caine & his wife turn to a nice tea.  The kidnappers want a king's ransom in diamonds that only Pleasence can approve.  Of course those in power won't allow it & it's up to Caine to steal the diamonds & get his son back all the while he's being framed.  Caine is none too bright as I know of a few pawn shops where he could have gotten some diamonds @ a fraction of the price
