What happens

Ring Around the World (Italian: Duello nel mondo, French: Duel dans le monde) is a 1966 Italian-French Eurospy spy thriller written and directed by Luigi Scattini (here credited as Arthur Scott) and starring Richard Harrison. The French director Georges Combret is credited as co-director but he only shot a few scenes of the film. Several scenes were originally shot in Hong Kong but due to production issues they were unusable and had to be re-shot in Rome. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
