      Audience Member Several familiar faces litter this late 70's tv movie about a former writer who tries to help a man who helped rob a hotel broker a deal with the hotel's insurance company for the stolen valuables. This one will likely be mostly forgotten by me outside of a brief Howard Cosell cameo and Ronny Cox sporting longer hair than I ever recall. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Thief uses reporter as a conduit to arrange a deal with the insurance company for return of stolen merchandise. Decent cast dominated by the reliable Charles Durning in the lead, who has a rather close relationship with his accountant. Howard Cosell makes a pointless cameo.
