Hard Contract

John Cunningham (James Coburn), a remorseless contract assassin for the Central Intelligence Agency, is offered a high-ticket job by his superior, Ramsey (Burgess Meredith), one that will pay Cunningham enough to retire if he wishes. En route to Europe to complete the assignment, Cunningham falls for Sheila (Lee Remick), a well-heeled American traveling with the devious German Alexi (Patrick Magee) and the sweet-natured Adrianne (Lilli Palmer), and questions his own morality.
