To Commit A Murder

In this special 2-disc set, you get beautiful anamorphic editions of both the English language version as well as the original French-language version (with English subs). Jourdan plays a poorly selling novelist-turned-unlucky-gambler in this engaging French spy movie. He soon becomes a pawn in a huge espionage plot concerning the defection of a famed laser scientist to the Red Chinese. A little slow at first but the film really kicks into gear in the second half. There are a couple of cool fight scenes, one especially with a guy going after another with a knife. O'Brien has a nice part as Jourdan's publisher; Senta is drop dead gorgeous.
