Comment/Synopsis

Clint Eastwood is an academic who is also an assasin. He is persuaded out of retirement by George Kennedy to revenge the death of a friend and uncover a spy. Clint Eastwood directs a film typical of the 1970's, that is politically incorrect, drawn out in places, but is worth watching for the climbing scenes. CLint Eastwood did all his own stunts in the film.
