My rating: 6.5/10
Will I watch it again? No.
You can't go wrong with Culp or Wallach. For 95% of the picture it's just these two guys at odds with each other as their stay drags on. It doesn't help that all of the interiors are obviously filmed on a set but then this was made for TV so the budget was a concern. But you don't watch these things for the sets, it's all about the story and acting and this is a good one. Besides these guys, the best part about it is the final ten minutes. I was riveted. It's a short flick (about 75 minutes) but it could probably use some cutting back. The mid section is a bit tedious.
