Mediocre thriller, with a weak and confusing story, but with strong actors and beautiful camera work. just 2.5*

With the passing of Gene Hackman I watched a film with him again that I had never seen before. A paranoid thriller in which a prisoner is recruited by a mysterious organization to carry out an assignment. The course of events is not really predictable and the ending is definitely not a happy ending . Despite the low ratings, the film turned out to be completely my thing.
Also with Eli Wallach and Richard Widmark, two film noir icons, it was already good for me. But it is Hackman who dominates with his presence. This film reminded me somewhere of The Game by Fincher, in which there too a character has to play a role in a game of which he does not know the rules.
Would have been grist to the mill for a director like Sam Peckinpah at that time.
