If there's a vice or deceit that doesn't roll across the screen as you watch this Harold Robbins' extravaganza, just wait a few minutes! Candice Bergen, Olivia de Havilland, Ernest Borgnine, Rossano Brazzi, Charles Aznavour and more star in The Adventurers, an irresistible mega-movie directed by Lewis Gilbert (Shirley Valentine, Moonraker) and loaded with all the trappings and treacheries, power plays and passions, intrigues and infighting of the world's super-rich. At the center of the jet-setting story is troubled playboy Dax (Bekim Fehmiu of Black Sunday). Raised far from his South American homeland of Corteguay amid the high society and political intrigue of Italy, Dax uses romance as stepping stone to success...and all the while schemes to bring vengeance on those who once wronged him and his family. Let the adventure begin. |
