Favorite Spy Movie?

I like Hitchcock's Notorious myself. I'm also partial to the newer Bourne movies, namely 2 & 3.

"The Living Daylights" because of Timothy Dalton, its special effects and relative sanitization - and its song "If There Was a Man." Agree w/ "Notorious" & "North by Northwest." Used to like "On Her Majesty's Secret Service," but saw it after my conversion and was repulsed by it, although Diana Rigg is worth watching in it and the soundtrack is good. Agree w/ "Three Days of the Condor," even though some of it's pretty violent and I never liked Robert Redford (probably one of the few people on the planet. Only movie I ever liked of his was "Butch Cassidy..."). Anyone ever see a movie called "Trapped" with Kathleen Quinlan? It's kind of "Die Hard," only in a high-rise building. I don't know if it ever had theatrical release... It's a great spy movie, IMHO.

Also "Charade," although I've seen it about 180 times. Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn - doesn't get much better than that.
