For CUK readers: which is the best thriller of all time?

[sasguru]

I've never read the book but the 60's film with Edward Fox is my fave film of all time. Funnily enough, I picked a copy of the book up yesterday at a Rotary Club book sale, but decided not to buy it.

Does the book differ from the film a lot ?

Unusually, the film is good too.
I prefer books though.

No, the film is fairly true to the book. It's also one of my favourite films.

And it's much better than the remake.

The remake was truly shocking, and bear no resemblance to the original at all ...

Another classic and vastly underated iconic 60's / 70's film ......... Marathon Man.

Probably my 2nd fave of all time.

Anyone seen it ??
