Tough Guys: Al Pacino in Serpico

on BBC Two England

continues a season starring the movie heroes.
Tonight with John Randolph
Based on the true story of Frank Serpico , this movie depicts the violent world encountered by the undercover cop. Joining the New York City police as an idealistic young rookie, he refuses the pay-offs which are commonplace to his colleagues. Transferred to plain-clothes work, his idealism and unconventional behaviour further isolate him from the force and his life is in danger from both sides of the law.
Screenplay by WALDO SALT . NORMAN WEXLER
Based on the book by PETER MAAS Produced by MARTIN BREGMAN Directed by SIDNEY LUMET
