Alain delon and burt Lancaster in one of delons few Hollywood appearances starring in one of my favorite kinds of movies. 1970s political thrillers. Love it can’t go wrong.

Burt Lancaster and Alain Delon isn’t the Duo we deserved but the Duo we needed. But if the writing ain’t good, not even this magnificent collaboration can save the film.

Appropriately dark, unlike modern spy movies that feel the need to give us a happy ending.
