Non Stop Trouble with Spies
In this German farce about a cab driver tasked to deliver a "comrade" back to the East German side of the Berlin Wall, a passenger who is dead to the world, permanently, when he arrives, Herbie Melbourne plays a hapless schlemiel who is unwittingly caught between the Devil and the deep blue sea. The KGB and East German Intelligence recruit Herbie the cabbie to assist them in determining who murdered the man in his back seat. Herbie is recruited by the CIA and West German Intelligence to become a counterspy after arriving on the West German side of the divide, for double what the other side is paying him. Herbie seeks the assistance of a therapist because he appears to have no viable way out of this mess. She reaches into her bag of tricks and hands Herbie a small vial of self-confidence that he can sniff whenever he needs it, an act that will put him in command of any scenario. Herbie is now a cab driver, a KGB agent, a CIA agent, and a bottle sniffer, and he's in love with his stunning therapist.
