Synopsis:

Biopic of Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky, chronicling the last years of his life. Forced to flee the Soviet Union in 1929, Trotsky went into exile in Mexico. But Stalin is determined to be rid of him, and sends an assassin to have him killed. Despite a solid performance by Richard Burton, Joseph Losey's film fails to give a meaningful insight into the idealist's murder. Alain Delon, Romy Schneider and Valentina Cortese also star

Cast:

Richard Burton as Leon Trotsky, Alain Delon as Frank Jackson, Romy Schneider as Gita Samuels, Valentina Cortese as Natalia Sedowa Trotsky, Enrico Maria Salerno as Salazar, Luigi Vannucchi as Ruiz, Duilio Del Prete as Felipe, Jean Desailly as Alfred Rosmer
