About This Item
After a bomb meant for British soldiers took out a school bus instead, IRA assassin Martin Fallon (Mickey Rourke) fled to London to escape his past. Offered passage to the States by local ganglord Jack Meehan (Alan Bates) if he eliminated a rival thug, the job became complicated when the murder was witnessed by priest Michael Da Costa (Bob Hoskins)-and the client wanted the padre silenced as well. Mike Hodges' gripping take on the Jack Higgins novel co-stars Liam Neeson, Sammi Davis, Alison Doody. 108 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.
