Kenneth Fearing, then. I have the MERCURY or BESTSELLER
MYSTERY abridgement
(I fear) of THE BIG CLOCK, and can recommend the film of that
name, and thought NO WAY OUT the remake one of the worst
movies I've seen all the way through...(Costner, Young, and
Hackman among the cast, but the script sinks it remarkably.)
TM (who shall have to seek out PP357.)

Police Python 357 is a french remake of "the Big Clock" which
was also remade as No Way Out. Have seen all three and for my
money, PP357 is the one to see. Highly recommended. And Yves
Montand (as always) is great in it.
