Shots in Threequarter Time (German: Schüsse im Dreivierteltakt, Italian: Operazione terzo uomo) is a 1965 crime film directed by Alfred Weidenmann.

He boards a chairlift and, following instructions received on a walkie-talkie, at a certain point he lets the suitcase drop to the ground.

Given eight days to recover it, the colonel in command puts his best man, secret agent Philippe Tissot, on the case.

Tissot adopts the code name "Caesar" for his undercover operation and starts tracking down the missing device.

Once arrived in the Austrian capital, Tissot pays a visit to the "Palladium", a variety theatre with a very dubious reputation as a transit point for stolen goods and secrets as well as a magnet for enemy agents and assassins.
