John Schlesinger’s Marathon Man–arguably one of the best thrillers ever made–has turned up on Netflix! If you haven’t seen it, it’s definitely worth a look. It has stars like Roy Scheider, Laurence Olivier, William Devane and Dustin Hoffman playing roles that careers are made from, in a story that involves international intrigue, danger (you’ll never look at dentistry the same way again) and diamonds in a manner that flows almost effortlessly from one scene to the next.
It’s a classic, and well-worth your time.
