Absence of Malice

Movie (1981)

Paul Newman stars as Michael Gallagher, the son of an infamous Mafia boss, who has rejected his family's criminal ways to lead a law-abiding life running a warehouse. When a union leader disappears, a frustrated FBI investigator leaks a story to the press that he intends to question Gallagher in the hope of scaring him into providing information - but the hapless businessman has no clue who the real culprits are and finds his life rapidly falling apart from the bad publicity. Sydney Pollack's forgettable drama, with Newman and Sally Field sadly wasted in the leads. Bob Balaban and Melinda Dillon co-star
