The Amateur (1981) – DVD | John Savage | Christopher Plummer | Cold War Spy Thriller
He’s not a spy. But he’s going to act like one. Starring John Savage in a compelling lead performance, The Amateur is a tense and gripping 1981 Cold War spy thriller in which a mild-mannered CIA computer technician’s girlfriend is murdered by terrorists in Munich. When the CIA refuses to act, he blackmails the agency into training him as a field operative — then sets off alone into Czechoslovakia to hunt down the killers himself. What follows is a nerve-shredding journey into the heart of Cold War espionage for a man who has no business being there.
Also starring Christopher Plummer and Marthe Keller, The Amateur is a rare and genuinely suspenseful thriller that delivers both action and intelligence. A must-own collectible DVD for fans of John Savage and classic Cold War spy cinema.
