==Reception== According to BFI Screenonline "this uneasy attempt to graft a youthful hero (Wyler's boyish projection) on to a rugged crime-buster framework usually associated with more mature leading characters - Charles Korvin's Inspector Duval in the 1959–1960 series ''Interpol Calling'' (ITV), for instance – gave ''The Man from Interpol'' little more than an air of tired hysteria."<ref>[http://www.screenonline.org.uk/people/id/773807/ The Danzigers] at BFI Screenonline</ref>
