The Parallax View (1974) Warren Beatty - Alan J. Pakula 06

Fantastic political thriller directed by Alan J. Pakula (who also directed All The President's Men) starring Warren Beatty in one of his best roles ever. The movie's tagline says it all "There is no conspiracy. Just twelve people dead." When a senator is murdered on the campaign trail, the official conclusion of a commission (not unlike the "Warren Commission" after the assassination of John F. Kennedy) is, that this was the work of a lone gunman. Yet, three years after the assassination, Joe Frady (Warren Beatty) is visited by his ex-girlfriend and fellow reporter (Paula Prentiss) with an update on how many of those who witnessed the senator's murder, died before their time as well. Initially, Frady is skeptic. Yet, when his ex ends up on a slab at the morgue not long after visiting him, he sets out on his own investigation. Other co-stars are Hume Cronyn, excellent as always, William Daniels (who also starred with Beatty in Reds), Kenneth Mars and Walter McGinn (who also starred in a similarly paranoid thriller "Three Days of the Condor") as the representative of the mysterious Parallax Corporation.
In this scene Joe (Beatty) meets the Parallax recruitment agent.
