In Dressed to Kill, Michael Caine, the sexy, badass man's man from Get Carter and Alfie, plays a psychotic psychiatrist struggling with gender identity, while Angie Dickinson (and her body double), a star known for sexual allure rather than
genuine acting prowess, wryly plays a middle - aged housewife bored with her life, who goes cruising in an art museum and ends up with a stranger going down on her in a taxi cab before getting sliced to ribbons.
