For world-weary contract killer Mitchell (John Hurt) and his fidgety apprentice Myron (Tim Roth, in his screen debut), the job sounded simple--go to Spain, abduct expatriate gangster Willie (Terence Stamp), and deliver him to the cronies he flipped on a decade earlier, awaiting in Paris. Their surprisingly resigned target, however, will play the hit men off each other...with the resulting carnage attracting the cops. Early thriller from Stephen Frears co-stars Laura del Sol, Fernando Rey, Bill Hunter. 98 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English (SDH); audio commentary; featurette; theatrical trailer.
