The story is told from the viewpoint of the investigator, Milo March (Palance) and takes him from Britain where the crime occurred to the European mainland. But Carter always seems to be just ahead of him or makes an escape...thanks to him being such a vicious man. Along for the ride is a beautiful woman (Anita Ekberg).
The fact that Carter seems to escape much too easily...mostly because March has no backup (which makes little sense considering how dangerous Carter is)...is a deficit of the story. Still, despite this, it's tense and worth seeing. It's also a bit surprising to see Palance playing the hero...something he really wasn't too familiar with at this point in his career.
By the way, you might wonder why an American actor stars in this British film. In the 1950s and 60s, it was not uncommon for European film companies to hired famous American actors (usually second-tier ones, as Palance was at the time) to star in the films. It was assumed the name recognition would help with sales...especially in the American market. It was most common in Italian movies but it was also true in many German and British films.

- TriviaThis was Bonar Colleano's final film before he was killed in a car accident on August 18, 1958 at the age of 34, three weeks before the film was released.
- ErroresWhen Sam Carter takes delivery of his forged Spanish passport he runs through the attributes it lists - eye colour blue, hair colour fair, height 5 feet 11 and a half inches and so on. However, Spain adopted the metric system in 1849, so his height would have been given in metres/centimetres.

Robert Stone: Without any warning at all, the door closed on me. I shouted and finally...
Milo March: You say you've known him for a long time?
Robert Stone: Yes, he's been doing our books for fifteen years at least. The quietest, nicest fellow you could meet. He came here about once in two weeks. Carter and I used to look at the stone together. We used to stand here, just looking.
Franklin: Hand in hand?
Robert Stone: Mr. March, you know anything about diamonds?
Milo March: Yeah, I know I can't afford them.
Robert Stone: Then let me ask you; have you ever seen something that became an obsession, something you simply had to possess?
Milo March: Aha. But she ran away with a Texas oil man.
Robert Stone: Well, Carter in a sense, eloped with the diamond. I don't condone him stealing it, mind you. But I can understand why he did it. He took it because he fell in love with it.
Franklin: It's like stealing another man's wife.
Milo March: Oh, come on now. What can a diamond do for you on a cold night?
Robert Stone: If you're lucky enough to find The Tyrahna Blue, you'll know what I mean. You see, Mr. March, every man is actually two men: the one the world sees, the other the man inside.
Milo March: You think that I'll steal it?
Robert Stone: [chuckles] No, course not, Mr March. But the idea may cross your mind. A diamond like The Tyrahna Blue is like a beautiful woman - irresistible. A fire with passion.
