George C. Scott and Trish Van Devere (Scott's future wife) costar in this gritty crime drama directed by Richard Fleisher (who replaced original director John Huston). Scott plays Harry Garmes, a former getaway driver who has retired to a peaceful life in a rural southern Portugal fishing village. Garmes is asked to pull off one last gig; he must drive a young killer (Tony Musante) and his girlfriend (Van Devere) across the border to France. What follows is a lean, full-of-attitude thriller where no one can be trusted, fueled by Scott's hard as nails performance and striking cinematography by Sven Nykvist.

Enjoyed it. A story with depth. Vintage cars along with excellent camera work.. George C. Scott.. it's not as action packed and thrilling as the description suggests.. but still very good and incredibly moving. A very deep and personal film.
