Fear Is the Key (1973) DVD
The plot
A stranger deliberately draws the attention of the police in a Louisiana town, then escapes with a young woman as his hostage. His reckless behavior conceals a calculated purpose, leading into a criminal operation tied to a lost aircraft and a deeply personal grievance. Barry Newman, Suzy Kendall and John Vernon star in Michael Tuchner's adaptation of Alistair MacLean's thriller. A sustained chase and a mystery beneath the action make it a strong choice for viewers who like revenge stories that keep their intentions hidden.
