The movie could be "The Liquidator", based on the first of the Boysie Oakes novels by John Gardner, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Liquidator_(1965_film) Accidentally seen as a ruthless assassin, despite being a devout coward, Oakes was recruited into a spy agency. He carried out his assignments by hiring an assassin to perform the killings for him. All up, there were 8 Boysie Oakes novels produced in the 60s and 70s, "The Liquidator" being the only one to be made into a film. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boysie_Oakes John Gardner wrote many novels, perhaps the most notable being the James Bond novels he wrote in the 80s and 90s following the death of Ian Fleming. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Gardner_(thriller_writer) Jan 13 13, 9:30 AM
