Details

• Release Year: 1997
• Genre: Crime, Drama, Suspense/Thriller
• Plot: 'One of the best movies Eastwood has made. Smart and suspenseful'. (Roger Ebert 'Siskel & Ebert); ; He was where he shouldn't have been and saw what he shouldn't have seen. Now, who will believe the word of a career thief and ex-con? Who will trust Luther Whitney when he says he saw a woman killed - and that the man responsible for her death is the President of the United States.; ; Clint Eastwood protrays Whitney and directs this crisp, finely acted thriller based on David Baldacci's best-selling novel. A stellar cast which includes Gene Hackman and Ed Harris creates well-rounded characters that intensify a constantly spiralling game of cat and mouse between Whitney, local police and the highest levels of White House power. Eastwood is a master at steadily raising the stakes in thrillers. Here his mastery is absolute.
