Country: US
Technical: col/scope 121m
Director: Jack Smight
Cast: Paul Newman, Lauren Bacall, Shelley Winters, Robert Webber, Janet Leigh, Julie Harris, Robert Wagner, Arthur Hill
Synopsis:
A private investigator takes on a case for a wealthy Los Angeles matron whose husband has been kidnapped.
Review:
Snappily cast, smartly written by William Goldman, Newman's first Lew Harper picture was a 'cool' plunge into the Angelino pool of corruption represented by the wealthy and the parasites who feed off them. The Drowning Pool (qv.) followed in 1975.
