 DVD Verdict Review - Topaz
Judged by the lofty standards as the Master of Suspense, Topaz does not hold up as one of his best efforts, yet there are enough instances of his masterly way with the camera to make viewing this movie required to anyone serious about film and the medium.
To add insult to injury, at 143 minutes the movie is far too long and after all the time one has to investment in Topaz, the ending, the third Hitchcock tried, is anti-climatic in the extreme.
Topaz stands as the only film Hitchcock made where he was unable to figure out an ending.

It seems Topaz has access to NATO secrets and in turn, deals that information to the Russians, which means a double agent must be involved somewhere.
This movie turns out to be decent enough, but it seems like a real let down, since it came from the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock.
Unforgivable in 1969, and even now, in Europe and it seems in the US where we must sing praises for "Comandante" and things like that.

Alfred Hitchcock hadn't made a spy thriller since the 1930s, so his 1969 adaptation of Leon Uris's bestseller Topaz seemed like a curious choice for the director.
1969's TOPAZ was Hitchock's second return in that decade to his earlierspy thriller films.
Although not the usual Hitchcock movie and made after Hitchcock had passedhis prime, this is still an engrossing film which never gets the respectwhich it deserves.

Although he attempted to bring a few symbolic touches to the globe-trotting spy thriller, Hitchcock failed, and as a result, the final half-hour of Topaz is a slab of confusing plot twists, capped off with one of three filmed endings.
But the other two-thirds of Topaz is made up of some of the most brilliant material Hitchcock has ever handled, incorporating an excellent cast and an absorbing tale of international espionage that would rival even the greatest spy stories.
Topaz is all about people in constant pursuit of something else.
