Triple Cross is a 1966 British film, directed by Terence Young and produced by Jacques-Paul Bertrand. It was based loosely on the real-life story of Eddie Chapman, believed by the Nazis to be their top spy in Great Britain, while in fact he was a double agent known as "Zigzag" for MI5. It was released in France in December 1966 as La Fantastique histoire vraie d'Eddie Chapman, but elsewhere in Europe and in the U.S. in 1967 as Terence Young's Triple Cross. This is the second pairing of Terence Young and actress Claudine Auger. She was the leading James Bond girl in Thunderball (1965), which Young had also directed. The screenplay for the film was co-written by William Marchant and René Hardy. less
