Eye of the Needle (1981)
Manage episode 402579534 series 2894165
Our final selection for the "3 Non Bonds" festival is the WW2 thriller, "Eye of the Needle" from 1981. Donald Sutherland stars as Faber, aka "the Needle", Hitler's premiere stiletto-wielding spy in England, who is racing to deliver news of the imminent Normandy invasion. But complications arise when he's thrown off course as he tries to flee and ends up shipwrecked on Storm Island. There he meets an estranged couple, Lucy and David (Kate Nelligan and Christopher Cassenove) who stand in his way of completing the job. Directed by Richard Marquand (who earned George Lucas' respect and the seat on "Return of the Jedi" for his sharp work here), "Eye of the Needle" is governed by a cool, quiet confidence and boasts some strong performances and memorable locations. But will it pass the triple-agent scoring? Grab your anoraks and step on-board with us to find out - the good ship BBN takes one final voyage in Non-Bond waters!
