Three Days of the Condor**
(US 1975)
A CIA clerical worker finds his unit wiped out by a rogue element, and faces a run for his life as they try to finish the job.
Slick if almost incomprehensible paranoia thriller, entertaining and tense in development, with good everyday use of New York locations, although as drama not quite matching up to the level of the starkly filmed opening massacre in the bookhouse.
Written by: Lorenzo Semple Jnr, David Rayfiel, from the novel "Six Days of the Condor" by James Grady.
Producer: Stanley Schneider.
Director: Sydney Pollack
Starring: Robert Redford, Faye Dunaway, Cliff Robertson, Max Von Sydow, John Houseman, Addison Powell, Walter McGinn, Tina Chen.
Photography: Owen Roizman.
Music: Dave Grusin.
THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR. Back in 1975, this slick paranoia thriller covered the World Trade Centre, suspected conspiracies and a Maguffin involving waging war with the Middle East, which today seems a little eerie.
