Power Play (1978)

Power Play is a good 1970s coup-de-etat film starring a low-key Peter O'Toole as the linchpin among revolutionaries who outsmarts them all. Everyone does yeoman's work in their roles, esp. David Hemmings and Donald Pleasence. This is what we had to watch at the midpoint between Bridge Over the River Kwai and Tom Clancy. I had to rent it from a competing service since it is in Save limbo along with tens of thousands of other titles here. 3 stars.
