The Little Drummer Girl

She is the creation of ruthless men. She is Le Carre's drummer girl. A beautiful young P.L.O. terrorist blows up a senior Israeli diplomat somewhere in West Germany. Her accomplice is a charming ladykiller Palestinian already under surveillance by an Israeli counter-terrorist group. The Palestinian's brother is a notorious and prolific terrorist called Khalil. He works alone; he is deadly and he is untraceable. Enter Charlie, an idealistic young American actress working in England. Fervently pro-Palestinian, she meets and falls in love with the ladykiller at a controversial rally. Suddenly she finds herself sucked into the eye of the hurricane. Lured to Greece on the pretext of a part in a wine commercial, Charlie is kidnapped by the Israelis. Her flimsy love affair with Khalil's brother will make her the pawn in a deadly game - like a sacrificial lamb she will lead the Israelis to their prey. Why she should do this and the horror she must go through before the Israelis can achieve their objective makes The Little Drummer Girl one of the most harrowing political thrillers of recent years. Oscar winning actress Diane Keaton, Klaus Kinski, and director George Roy Hill (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Sting) provide much more than just an evening's entertainment. © Warner Bros.
