Synopsis
52 Pick-Up (1986) is John Frankenheimer's crime thriller from the Elmore Leonard novel, ready to watch online on iFILM. Los Angeles businessman Harry Mitchell (Roy Scheider) has been married twenty-three years when an affair with a younger woman drops him into a blackmail trap that could wreck his company and his wife's run for city council.
Three masked men show Harry a tape and demand a hundred thousand dollars. He can't call the police — the scandal would bury the campaign of his wife Barbara (Ann-Margret). At first the ex-major stalls and bluffs. Then the extortionists murder his mistress on camera and mail him the footage, and the cool-headed Harry decides to run his own game: turn the three of them against each other.
Frankenheimer films Los Angeles as a sweaty maze of cheap porn shoots and dirty cash. John Glover, as the lead blackmailer, is exactly as repellent as the part needs. A hard, adult neo-noir where revenge is served cold and methodical. Stream 52 Pick-Up (1986) online on iFILM.
