Coogan's Bluff
The man with no fear... takes on a killer with no pity... in a city with no heart.
Directed by Don Siegel
Produced by Universal Pictures, Malpaso Productions
A brisk, kinetic crime thriller built on the clash between a maverick Arizona lawman and a sprawling, indifferent New York City, driven by pursuit and action rather than introspection.
Coogan, an Arizona deputy sheriff goes to New York to pick up a prisoner. While escorting the prisoner to the airport, he escapes and Coogan heads into the city to recapture him.
