Rare Polaroids of Sharon Tate on the Set of Her Last Film ‘The Wrecking Crew’ in 1968

The Wrecking Crew is a 1968 American spy comedy film directed by Phil Karlson and starring Dean Martin, along with Elke Sommer, Sharon Tate, Nancy Kwan, Nigel Green, and Tina Louise. It is the fourth and final film in the Matt Helm series, and is loosely based on the 1960 novel of the same name by Donald Hamilton.

It was Sharon Tate’s last film released before her death in 1969. It was also the Hollywood film debut for two future action movie stars: Bruce Lee, who worked behind the scenes as an action choreographer, and Chuck Norris, who made his film debut in a small role.
