Brass Target

Brass Target

The Nazis hid it. The Russians want it. The Americans stole it. General George S. Patton may die for it.

1978111 min5.4 / 10

A paranoid Cold War thriller that reimagines Patton's death as a murder mystery entangling Nazis, Russians, and American conspirators around a fortune in stolen gold.

General George S. Patton died in a car accident in 1945. But was his death actually a murder. Is he targeted by Nazis angered by Germany's defeat? Or by Russians who knew that Patton had argued in favor of invading the Soviet Union towards the end of the war? Or is it because Patton is investigating the theft of a quarter of a billion dollars of Nazi gold? Or is it because his subordinate Colonels - the flamboyantly gay Colonel and his worried lover are fearful that he is getting too close to discovering the truth.
