The victims, who include the daughter of U.S. Senator Donnovan, have been abducted from a yacht called "Rosebud." As a result, CIA agent Larry Martin swings into action to find them. He receives help from secret agents from various countries, including Israel (Hamlekh) and West Germany (Schloss). Martin also tries to get information from Sloat, a mysterious Englishman who would like nothing better than to see the PLO destroy Israel. Will Martin be able to track down the terrorists and save the girls? Or will his efforts prove futile? [More]

Reviews for Rosebud
A suspense melodrama of such ineptitude, lethargy and loose ends that only someone with his arm being twisted would take credit for it.
While the plot meanders at times, and the film's politics are confused, the reliable performances and Preminger's steady pacing make for a generally involving movie.
