The Gauntlet 
Main Actor(s)/Actresses: Clint Eastwood, Sondra Locke
Memorable supporting cast: William Prince, Pat Hingle
Plot: A prostitute Augusta Mally is a material witness to a crime committed by the Vegas mob. Ben Shockley is played by Clint Eastwood who is a cop that is sent to pick up the witness and bring her back to Phoenix to stand trial. Suffice it to say, Ben Shockley's captain is feeding information to the mob and Nevada police are given false reports that Eastwood and the prostitute are armed and dangerous criminals so the police have orders to shoot to kill.
Extra thoughts: This is a fun and violent movie. The end of the movie is worth waiting for. If you like “shoot’em ups” you will like this film.
