Cast

Production

The film was known for an extended car chase with an Opel Commodore GS/E I6 involving Joe Moran (Charles Bronson)'s attempt to get a doctor (Paul Bonifas) to wounded drug dealer Ross (James Mason) in exchange for his wife Fabienne Martin (Liv Ullmann).[1]

Ullmann complained in an interview that Bronson was rude to her and her daughter Linn during the filming. She claims that he returned her child to her when she wandered to his table and admonished her by saying "Please keep your child to yourself."[2]
