The Outside Man by Jacques Deray - Movies

Jacques Deray ('The Outsider') directed this gritty seventies action-classic featuring an iconic cast which includes Jean-Louis Trintignant ('The Conformist'), Ann-Margret ('52 Pick-Up'), Roy Scheider ('Marathon Man'), Angie Dickinson ('Dressed to Kill'), Michel Constantin ('The Cop'), Umberto Orsini ('Violent City') and Ted de Corsia ('The Killing') as they battle each other for their lives from the back alleys of downtown Los Angeles to the posh mansions of Beverly Hills. Trintignant is a hit man imported from Paris to kill L.A.’s biggest mafia boss. His unknown employer: the mafia boss’s own son and the son’s beautiful wife (Dickinson). Having done his job, the hit man looks for his reward. It comes, in the form of another hit man (Scheider), sent in to kill him and thus remove any links to the murder. Sexy Ann-Margret is Trintignant’s only ally as he and Scheider play a murderous game of cat-and-mouse. Nail-biting suspense, exciting high-speed chases and one of the most unique and climactic gun battles ever filmed are only part of 'The Outside Man', boasting an ultra-cool score by Michel Legrand ('The Thomas Crown Affair').
