A Lovely Way to Die is a 1968 American drama film directed by David Lowell Rich and starring Kirk Douglas, Sylva Koscina Eli Wallach and Kenneth Haigh.[1] A police officer resigns from the force, and takes up a role as a bodyguard to the wife of a wealthy man. When her husband is found dead, he finds himself trying to clear her of murder.
The film is notable for two supporting players: Martyn Green, longtime Gilbert and Sullivan specialist and actor/singer/director with the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company, makes a rare movie appearance; and Ali McGraw makes her film debut in a walk-on.
