HARRY PALMER DOUBLE
On DVD
BEFORE BOURNE THERE WAS PALMER
Bullet To Beijing When the Cold War ends, the British Secret Service decides it no longer has a use for top agent Harry Palmer. There are others, however, who still have a need for a man of Harry Palmer’s skills. He is promptly approached by Alex, a Russian businessman. In St. Petersburg, Alex tells Harry of his plan for Russia's future, which is threatened because a deadly bio-chemical weapon called the Red Death has been stolen from him. Alex is prepared to pay Harry handsomely to locate and recover the renegade weapon. An ex-spy friend tips Harry off that the weapon is being sent to Beijing by train, aboard which we begin to learn just whose side everyone is really on... Midnight In St. Petersburg Having lost his intelligence job at the end of the Cold War, former British secret agent Harry Palmer (Michael Caine) now travels East to find new outlets for his skills. Harry sets up a Private Investigation company in Russia, and soon finds himself charged with rescuing his young assistant Nikolai’s girlfriend Tatiana, who has been kidnapped. The trail leads to St. Petersburg, which Harry finds to be a city held in the iron grip of the violent Russian Mafia. The mafia does its best to stop Harry in his tracks, but it may be easier said than done!
