The feature film starring
Ben Gazzara Jack Carter
When his younger brother Nick runs away from a murder contract, Eddie Rico is summoned by his Mafia bosses to 'deal' with the situation. Eddie is faced with the crisis-does love of his family come first or loyalty to the gang-land ' family ' for whom he works? Based on a novel by Georges Simenon , this is an unusual variation on the syndicate story, with a fine central performance by Gazzara as the gangster forced to betray his own brother.
