The Sicilians is a 1964 British second feature[1] film directed by Ernest Morris and starring Robert Hutton, Reginald Marsh and Ursula Howells.

Mafia member Angelo Di Marco betrays other mafioso in a court hearing, and in revenge his son is kidnapped.

Some variety is achieved by rapid shifts in locale, from New York to London and then Paris, and by the insertion of cabaret items, but there is little compensation for the weakness of the narrative.

The excellent Ursula Howells lifts the level of the film's flat dialogue exchanges, but the whole thing is padded with terrible cabaret acts, and the paper-thin characterisation includes caricatures of a chattering woman on a plane (Patricia Hayes), touchy stage doorman (Michael Balfour) and a 'gallant' Frenchman (Alex Scott).

"[1] The Radio Times Guide to Films gave the film 2/5 stars, writing: "Known for his brisk approach to shooting and his no-nonsense style, Ernest Morris was able to make even the flimsiest of crime thrillers watchable, including this one about a dancer and a diplomat who search for a mafioso's kidnapped son.
