Shadowboxer: Hit lady Mirren and her companion Gooding have an irregular personal and virtuoso relation, however he's unprepared for her to make the decision she does when proposed with a task that requires her to shoot a young pregnant woman.

Malden comparably impressive as General Omar Bradley in intelligently written, finely wrought biographical battle drama. Cast includes George C. Scott, Karl Malden, Stephen Youthful, Michael Hefty, Frank Latimore, James Edwards, Lawrence Dobkin, Michael Bates, and Tim Considine. (169 minutes, 1970)
