Synopsis:
A corrupt police officer on the Mexican border patrol decides to turn over a new leaf when he comes across the case of an impoverished woman trying to sell her infant child on the black market.
Review:
Nicholson looks good in this, conveying a sense of his isolation from the dumbness and immorality surrounding him, but the story is either tedious or over-familiar and the final showdown long in coming and over too fast.
