"We need people," Anderson says, "with talent, people who can stand the physical game and basic insanity of campaigning, and who can deal with the candidate." Fallows, he adds, can do all this...

Ford paid the money back into the Fifth District account by writing a check, dated Dec. 16, against...

The diamonds are stashed in a Manhattan safe-deposit box, watched over by Szell's brother, who, as the movie begins, is incinerated in an auto accident. Since Szell understandably does not trust any of his couriers, he must now come to the U.S. and get the diamonds himself. The couriers are tough, well-tailored guys like Scylla (Roy Scheider) and Janeway (William Devane), who may at any time be working for Szell, the U.S. Government, themselves, or any combination thereof...
