An oldie from 1978

5/10

"Very dated tv movie starring Beau Bridges, Larry Hagman, Don Porter, Karen Grassle, and Susan Blanchard. Bridges was 36 here; he looks 18. Donna Morton (Grassle) is having an affair with the President of the US, unbeknownst to her brother (Bridges). She is suspected of being a KGB agent, and while someone is putting a bug in her phone, she is accidentally killed. Bridges saw her in a White House owned limo; he sets out to find what happened. It was interesting to compare this film to one made today. The computers were ancient, for one thing. Cheesy background music. These are common in film..."
