Brass Target (1978)
Available on all-region DVD

Synopsis: Thick layers of plot make for a very thin enterprise in a film that lacks any central focus point. It's the kind of picture that is so mesmerised by the detail of its basic idea (what if General Patton was killed just after the war in the course of his investigation into a gold bullion heist?) it allows class performers to wander in and out of the story, spouting slabs of dialogue rather than developing their roles. Sophia Loren is the prime victim.

Cast: Sophia Loren, John Cassavetes.
