==Reception==
According to [BFI Screenonline](/source/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](/source/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](/source/BFI_Screenonline)</ref>
