I’m enjoying a bit of a Bronson fest’! I tried watching Maniac Cop, but it was just too crap. So we watched this instead.
Bronson plays a man living a good life on the Côte d’Azur, whose happiness is disturbed when his unfortunate past catches up with him. He has to protect his wife and daughter from vengeful criminals who have a grudge against him.
The plot’s not exactly brilliant. But it serves as a vehicle for Terence Young (Dr No, (?), Thunderball, etc.) to serve up a fun Franco-Italian production, set in a great location (Beaulieu-Sur-Mer), that’s enjoyable to watch.
Jill Ireland, Bronson’s wife, plays Moira, a dippy hippie chick who is hanging out with the villains. James Mason is the ringleader of these nasty goons. Liv Ullman is Bronson’s on-screen wife…
