Marathon Man
“One man's dangerous attempts to clear his father's name”
Director
John Schlesinger
Screenplay
William Goldman
John Schlesinger's paranoid conspiracy thriller stars Dustin Hoffman as a graduate student and runner who is drawn into a deadly plot involving a fugitive Nazi war criminal. Laurence Olivier is chilling as the sadistic dentist behind the film's infamous torture scene and its unforgettable line, 'Is it safe?'. Tense and stylish, it became a defining 1970s thriller and one of the decade's most nerve-shredding paranoid pictures.
