Sadly neglected 70 s thriller shot on location in Oslo, Norway. Sean Connery looks great as Scandinavian Security Chief Nils Tahlvik, and director Caspar Wrede has made some great use of Oslo scenery including a West Side residential area, Oslo s City Hall and Fornebu International Airport (which closed down in 1998). It s also nice to see one of Norway s greatest stage actors, Knut Wigert, as Connery s commanding officer.
All though slow-moving at times this gritty looking thriller has a nice realistic flair to it, including some surprising plot twists along the way.
One final note: from a Norwegian point-of-view it s fun to see how much this British production has the look and feel of a 70 s Norwegian film!
