Country: US
Technical: col/scope 109m
Director: Clint Eastwood
Cast: Clint Eastwood, Sondra Locke, Pat Hingle
Synopsis:
A cop with a drinking problem is assigned to escort a prostitute from Arizona to Nevada so that she can testify in a routine trial. However, the prostitute is a loudmouthed pain in the ass, the trial is that of a key mob figure and he gradually realizes he has been set up.
Review:
Eastwood's best cop film is a classic noir setup with a big twist finish. It's profane, gutsy and badass, with great location work and a legendary catchphrase: 'Nag, nag, nag.'
