Talk about a horror movie. Watch this and tell me if you can look at your dentist ever again without breaking into a cold sweat. Jesus.Babe Levy (Dustin Hoffman) is working on his graduate thesis at Columbia University and training to enter a marathon when he is drawn into a dangerous international web of diamond smuggling involving his brother Doc (Roy Schider), shadowy government personnel (William Devane), and a dental tool-wielding Nazi (Laurence Olivier).
This was made before I was born but it still holds up remarkably well as an edge-of-your-seat movie. Sir Laurence Olivier is absolutely chilling as the White Angel. Now I know why people speak his name with such reverence. The man disappeared into that role. I was totally blown away.
