Three Days of the Condor

In this classic ‘70s conspiracy thriller, Robert Redford stars as CIA codebreaker Joe Turner. Code name: Condor. When his entire office is massacred, Turner goes on the run from his enemies … and his so-called allies. After reporting the murders to his superiors, the organization wants to bring Condor in—but somebody is trying to take him out. In his frantic hunt for answers, and in a desperate race for his life, Turner abducts photographer Kathy Hale (Faye Dunaway), eventually convincing her to help him and possibly falling in love in the process. Every twist leads Condor to the end of his nerves … and will take you to the edge of your seat. And as he zeroes in on the staggering truth, he discovers there are some secrets people would kill to keep. Masterfully directed by Sydney Pollack, and also starring Cliff Robertson, John Houseman, and an icy Max von Sydow, 3 Days of the Condor endures as one of Hollywood’s finest tales of political paranoia. (Dir. by Sydney Pollack, 1975, USA, 117 mins., Rated R)
