The Web
Directed by Michael Gordon
Produced by Universal International Pictures
A classic film noir about a young lawyer caught in a web of deception and danger, where trust becomes a liability and nothing is as it seems.
A brash young lawyer takes a short-term, high-paying job as bodyguard for a slick business exec being threatened by a former partner, and quickly realizes he may be in over his head.
