From their press release:
MAROC 7 (1967)
From director Gerry O’Hara (The Pleasure Girls) and screenwriter David Osborn (Deadlier Than the Male) comes a 1967 British globe-trotting thriller of jewel thieves, secret identities, and double-crosses. Fashion editor Louise Henderson may seem respectable, but in reality, she’s a criminal mastermind using her magazine as a front for her jewel-thieving ring. It’s up to undercover man Simon Grant to stop her, posing as a safecracker to infiltrate her gang and bring them down from the inside. But with criminals, police, and secret agents converging in Morocco, who will end up with the priceless Arabian medallion? Starring Gene Barry (Naked Alibi), Denholm Elliott (The Boys From Brazil), Elsa Martinelli (Hatari!), Leslie Phillips (Out of Africa), Alexandra Stewart (Day For Night), and Hollywood legend Cyd Charisse (Brigadoon) as mastermind Lousie Henderson, Maroc 7 also boasts a hit theme song performed by legendary instrumental rock group The Shadows.

SOME GIRLS DO (1969)
“These girls love men, and show it in an extraordinary way. Titillating, unusual, exotic, but always very, VERY dangerous!”
From the height of the swinging sixties comes everybody’s favourite Aston Martin-driving British spy with an eye for the ladies… Bulldog Drummond! A powerful criminal is using murder and sabotage to delay the development of the world’s first supersonic airliner. Taking on murderous supervillains is all in a day’s work for Bulldog, but can he hold his own against an army of seductive fembots with electronic brains? From prolific British director Ralph Thomas (Doctor in the House, Conspiracy of Hearts) comes an iconic entry in the cult comedy spy series. Richard Johnson (Deadlier Than the Male) reprises his role as Bulldog, alongside Sydne Rome (Sex with a Smile) as ditsy sidekick Flicky, and James Villiers (For Your Eyes Only) as the villainous Carl Peterson, with legendary character actor Robert Morley (Oscar Wilde) appearing as undercover spy Miss Mary.
