Such a frustrating disappointment

One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Am I Missing Something?

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Although I do vaguely remember watching this show as a kid, it's not the same story as the film from 1952 which starred James Mason and was directed by Joseph L Mankiewicz.Fox just used the same title, like they did for their Bus Stop TV series. That one had nothing to to with the Marilyn Monroe film from 1956. They were in a habit of taking old film titles of theirs and making a TV show out of it. They did Broken Arrow, How To Marry A Millionaire, Margie.Five Fingers did have something to do with espionage, like the movie, but Hedison was a good guy, and Mason played a double agent as a rather shadowy character in the film.Don't remember much more that that, and it's likely that this series will never be aired again.

It's hard to believe that some of you remember or saw this show. The show was really a precursor to the Bond movies and for TV in its day, was produced very well. My family and I loved watching David Hedison and had a special reason for watching Luciana Paluzzi. She is our cousin and we were all so proud of her. Ben, your comments about how beautiful she was is spot on, but Luciana was/is extremely smart as well. My grandfather, Vincenzo Paluzzi, told us that before being discovered as an actress, Luciana was studying to be a scientist. She went on to play opposite Sean Connery in the James Bond movie Thunderball. Today, an updated show like would be a hit...are you listening J.Abrams?

I remember this show and I wish it would come out on DVD, it was an interesting show at the time long before the James Bond, Matt Helm, and Our Man Flint Films came out. It also came out long before TV shows like the Wild Wild West, Man From Uncle, Girl From Uncle,Seacret Agent Man, The Avengers, and even Get Smart. I have looked for this series for years and have not been able to find it on DVD or VHS. I wish someone had an episode list of the whole series and would publish it on the IMDb. I did not remember David Hedison being in the show the one that I remembered was Suzana Puluzzi because she was so good looking back then.

Five Fingers was a series of espionage and intrigue ahead of its time in 1959. David Hedison was the male protagonist and a for a time acquired a female following as a "hunk." The female star, Italian actress Luciana Paluzzi was one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen on TV. Her beauty was not lost on movie producers who cast her opposite Sean Connery in the James Bond film "Thunderball" in 1965. It would be interesting to know if any of these TV episodes were ever preserved and could be watched today. Probably not.
