Marathon Man - 1976 - 7/10
“Is it safe?”
Nazi loot, diamonds, form the McGuffin of this high stakes espionage piece.
The younger brother is an idealist, the older is dodgier, a middleman between worlds.
Young innocents are ever drawn into shadows, and here is no exception.
Dustin Hoffman fine as the ordinary soul caught up, Laurence Olivier unforgettable.
Poster child for generations of dental practices.
Exceptional thriller as it unfolds, afterward don’t overthink the logic.
