The Last Run(1971)
The Last Run(1971) --->>> https://urlgoal.com/2tkRah
There are moments in \"The Last Run\" when you squirm with delight, because here's a gangster movie, at last, that almost seems to understand what gangster movies were about. But these moments are so few that perhaps they're left over from the movie's earlier incarnation, when John Huston was the director. Huston and the star, George C. Scott, had a quarrel, and Huston walked off the set to be replaced by that prince of mediocrities, Richard Fleischer.
OK. So, at the end, Scott dies and the boy and girl run away, hand in hand, through the surf toward the getaway boat. If \"The Last Run\" possessed a tenth of the hard-boiled cynicism of the great gangster movies, Musante would have been killed and Scott, already dying, would have shot the girl as his last conscious act: an act of love, mercy and revenge. Now THERE would have been a movie for Huston to direct.
A former mob getaway driver from Chicago has retired to a peaceful life in a Portuguese fishing village. He is asked to pull off one last job - to drive a dangerous crook and his girlfriend to France.
I thought Walter Hill's The Driver was the inspiration for Refn's Drive. But it really is this 1971 kick ass film. George C. Scott is Harry Grames. A retired getaway driver living in Portugal. He accepts one last job and you know how that goes. Tony Musante is the escaped loudmouth convict that Harry must take across the border. C. Scott is fucking great as usual and just like other getaway drivers he doesn't suffer any fools. Great script, cinematography and direction from underrated director Richard Fleischer.
Minimalist and character-driven 70's thriller with George C. Scott as a former getaway driver living in self-imposed exile in Portugal who finds himself compelled to come out of retirement for, you guessed it, one last run. Scott gives yet another tremendous and lived-in performance, there's some incredible stunt driving that remains impressive to this day, and Jerry Goldsmith turns in a driving and melodic score that feels part Bond/part giallo; if \"The Last Run\" remains a bit more obscure than it deserves to, it might be because the film leans heavily into the makeshift nuclear family formed by our three criminals on the run, to the point that at times resembles a domestic drama rather than a crime picture.
A former getaway driver from Chicago (George C. Scott) has retired to a peaceful life in a Portugese fishing village. He is asked to pull off one last job, involving driving a dangerous crook and his girl-friend to France. However, the job turns out to be a double-cross and the trio are pursued back to Portugal where they make one last stand on the coast while the enemy assassins attempt to gun them down (source).
Ah....George C. Scott, the man who made tempestuousness a bankable quality on screen. A consummate bearer of American patriotism if ever there was one. If he's not chasing his daughter's traffickers in Paul Schrader's Hardcore (1979), he's barking orders as the famous General George S. Patton in Franklin J. Schaffner's self-titled film, Patton (1970). In whatever incarnation, he's got your back (and his own). In this acting turn, Scott plays Harry Garmes, a retired driver for criminals who's living a quiet, yet fruitless existence in a village in Portugal. With no further purpose in life, and only a prostitute, (an occasional lover), for company, Scott decides to gamble this, in some ways, enviously sedate life, in favour of one \"last run\", a job transporting an escaped killer, Paul Rickard (Tony Musante), and his girlfriend, Claudie Scherrer (Trish Van Devere), across Portugal and Spain, into France.
A getaway driver retires to a small town in Portugal to enjoy a simple, quiet life far from his past, but he is dragged back in for one last run that can either bring about his salvation or send him...Read more real quick to his grave.

Original MGM One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the Richard Fleischer action crime drama, THE LAST RUN (1971) starring George C. Scott, Tony Musante, Trish Van Devere, and Colleen Dewhurst. The film chronicles a former getaway driver (Scott) who has retired to a peaceful Portuguese fishing village. But he is asked to pull off one last job, and he accepts. Scott 's memorable portrayal of an aging criminal is low-key but extremely effective. This original one sheet poster is folded and in fine condition.RICHARD FLEISCHER - DirectorGeorge C.

Wayne Granger was the final Reds pitcher. All he allowed in the top of the ninth was a two-out single by Vukovich. Wise was the last out, grounding out after fidgeting nervously with his cap, bat, and sleeves in the on-deck circle.21
After years with a last-place team, Wise finally got to taste the postseason in 1975 with Boston, after being traded there in 1973. He started Game Three and closed Game Six of the 1975 World Series. He earned the win in Game Six when the Red Sox walked off in the bottom of the 12th after he pitched a scoreless top of the frame. Four of the hitters he faced in that inning were Reds he had faced in this no-hitter four years earlier: Bench, Pérez, Foster, and Concepción.
The Commission did not hear from claimant or his wife again until December 3, 1969, when it received a claim filed by claimant's second attorney. This claim came on for hearing on January 9, 1970. The paramount issue was whether the statute of limitations provided by Fla. Stat. 440.19(1) (a), F.S.A. and Fla. Stat. 440.13(3) (b), F.S.A. had run on the claim. The employer and its carrier contended that the claim was barred because it was not refiled within eight months of May 20, 1966, the original hearing date; for this argument, they relied upon their interpretation of Section (a) of Rule of Procedure No. 3. In the alternative, respondents argued that more than two years had passed since the last remedial treatment authorized, and, therefore, the statute of limitations applied; in making this latter argument, respondents took the position that Mrs. Turner's letter did not constitute a claim.
The Judge of Industrial Claims ruled that the letter from claimant's first attorney did eliminate the first claim even though no formal Commission order of dismissal was entered; this being so, the current proceedings were not a continuation of the first claim. Additionally, the Judge ruled that the statute of limitations would have run on the second claim as well, were it not for the letter written by Mrs. Turner, which was transmitted to the Commission. This letter, the Judge determined, was sufficient to constitute a new claim under the authority of A.B. Taff & Sons v. Clark, 110 So. 2d 428 (1st D.C.A.Fla. 1959), and Florida Telephone Corporation v. Oliver, 126 So. 2d 885 (Fla. 1961). It was timely filed since received by the Commission within two years after the last remedial treatment. 59ce067264
