When Jane Fonda inherits her murdered husband's stock shares in his financial company, she gets entangled in a dangerous international scheme. She also falls for banker Kris Kristofferson, so that's a nice bonus.
I'll be honest: I had no idea what was going on during most of this movie. It's very heavy on the financial talk, so if you don't speak Wall Street, you'll probably be just as lost as I was. Kris, Jane, Hume Cronyn, Josef Sommer, and Bob Gunton—in his first film—are all involved in this financial thriller, and for those of you who can follow the plot, it'll be a nail-biter until the very end. For me, it was a snooze-fest until the very end, at which time I was very grateful. The only parts of the movie that stood out to me were some pretty outfits Jane Fonda wore and Macon McCalman's very convincing acting in a scene where he expresses his fear for his life.
