King Vidor

Obsession can take many forms--love, patriotism, greed--but when it combines all three it can only have explosive results in a man driven by Love & Money. Successful investment planner Byron Levin's (Ray Sharkey--Wiseguy, The Idolmaker) career is no longer a challenge, so when international business magnate Frederick Stockheinz (Klaus Kinski--Fitzcarraldo) asks him to head up a new venture in a small South American country, Levin accepts the challenge. But as business in Latin America forces Levin to deal with a ruthless, corrupt dictator (Armand Assante), Levin also finds himself uncontrollably drawn to his employer's beautiful wife (Ornella Muti--Flash Gordon). Now one wrong misstep could mean sudden death as Levin finds himself caught between love, patriotism and greed in this edge-of-your-seat thriller.
