Clint Eastwood did all of his own stunts, including the scene where he cuts his safety line over a drop of at least one thousand feet. The only stunt he did not perform was a 2500-foot drop, for which a dummy was used. See more »

"Jonathan Hemlock" (Clint Eastwood) is a professor of art history, which previously led a dangerous double life as a murderer in the pay for a secret international organization. However, now is blackmailed into carrying out one last mission: the victim is one of three people attempting the ascent of the Eiger, a dangerous peak in the Swiss Alps.
Clint Eastwood works well in front of and behind the camera in this great action thriller, full of interesting dialogue, as well as excellent climbing action scenes in which Eastwood himself constantly had to face death (and it had cost the life of one of the specialists).
The film has a superb background music of John Williams and some beautiful scenery and good supporting actors like George Kennedy (who had worked with one year earlier Eastwood in "Thunderbolt & Lightfood"), sensual Brenda Venus and hateful Gregory Walcott playing "Pope", who is a goofy messenger of "C2" (intelligence company where Eastwood works). From the Grand Canyon, passing through Zurich to the Alps, the film is a demonstration of force that Eastwood has to tell a good story without falling into the topics are quite characteristic of this genre.
It's good film with an unexpected ending, an excellent performance from Eastwood.
