AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

moonspinner55 Inquisitive, unflagging schoolmaster in London chases down the driver of a car which ran him off the road to a secluded manor in the woods; sneaking in the back window, the teacher comes across a secret sect of gentleman bankers who appear to be unaware of his presence when a shooting occurs. Complicated, endlessly intriguing film from Universal was distributed straight to television, though it has the look and feel of a theatrical feature (and may have eventually been pared down to TV-movie length, unfortunately). There simply isn't enough time on the clock to expand on all the twists and turns in Trevor Wallace's script. This would make the perfect mini-series, as each unfolding episode holds a small surprise. Louis Jourdan is terrific in the leading role--smart, sure-handed, resourceful. Mary Tyler Moore plays his romantic interest who may or may not be what she seems, and she's well-matched with Jourdan (but why can't the women in these movies ever run from Point A to Point B without falling down?). The concluding events seem a bit rushed, and Jourdan's escape from a locked room near the climax is right out of James Bond. Still, the film is a good one; improbable, perhaps, but tightly-paced, intelligent, and highly enjoyable.

franktrcek When I first saw this movie, I missed the first section and only watched it from where he regained conscious in hospital, and followed it form there. So the suspense was in real time as the movie progressed. I was unsure the most of the way through it as to the sincerity of the part played by Mary Tyler Moore, and only when the film gathered pace did it become clear where her allegiance stood. It was a while until it appeared on TV again and when it did I was able to watch it from the beginning and followed it with great interest. What a great movie. Since this last time I saw it which was about twenty or more years ago I have looked in every newspaper TV section hoping I would be able to see it again but alas this at present has not been successful. I'm sure one day I will view it again. Lets have a DVD of the movie.

David Mullineux This really should be re-made today ! Its got a brilliant twist and keeps the audience guessing throughout. Louis Jordan is an excellent hero. Mary Tyler Moore is his , initially sceptic, companion. The polo match injury in hospital scene is one of those "OH yeah!" cinematic moments. I would love to see this movie released and will pay good money to get a copy. If anyone ever hears about how to get hold of a copy please contact me!!! Or simply put a review comment down here so that we can all get a copy ! I actually emailed the BBC to get this re-scheduled on TV and they said they would. Nowadays, Brad Pitt would play Louis Jordan's role and Julia Roberts could be the Mary Tyler Moor role. 10/10 Fantastic !

mbenz300ce Saw it several times in the 70s on the "Late, Late Movie". It was an unusual role for Mary Tyler Moore and had an interesting plot twist. Would love to get a copy of it but have never found one. Doubt it will ever be released to video since it was a made for TV movie.
