TNL Movie Club- The Eiger Sanction
from IMDB.com:
"Jonathan Hemlock is an Art teacher and collector who finances his hobby by performing the odd sanction (assassination) for an obscure government bureau. He is forced to take a case where he must find out which of the members of a mountain climbing team is the Russian killer he has been given as a target by joining an expedition to climb the treacherous Eiger."
This stars and was directed by Clint Eastwood. A buddy recently gave it to me for my birthday and I was surprised that there was a Clint film I had never heard of before.
As I watched it, it reminded me of how much movies have changed over the years. Parts of this film push towards the Exploitation side of genre film, and there's a lot of dialog that you just wouldn't hear in a modern film.
The fights scenes are kinda hokey looking, but bear with it, I think it's a great movie.
