A talented filmmaker made a thriller that was absolutely no better than it had to be, and indeed it is quite thrilling, when it is not forcing us to watch its cardboard characters.

Fonda seeks the help of Kris Kristofferson (HEAVEN'S GATE) a financial troubleshooter, and together they try to expose the murderers and safeguard Fonda's finances. Kristofferson consoles Fonda on both financial and personal matters and the two travel to Saudi Arabia to broker a deal that will give Fonda the board chairmanship of her inherited firm. The Arab investors, however, pull a trump card on the pair, throwing the international financial network in an uproar. Conspiracy, political intrigue and big stars are at the heart of this film, as is true of a number of Alan J. Pakula's excellent films of the 1970s such as KLUTE, THE PARALLAX VIEW, and ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN. [More]
