Shooting an Albatross
When a gauntlet is thrown, a challenge match between an Army General and a Navy Admiral, the two golf novices choose partners with care. From the Army side comes Private Evan Wilkins, a highly skilled golfer from small-town Idaho. As the story unfolds, we discover that Private Wilkins has formed another pairing, this time with Amanda, the daughter of one of the neighboring film moguls. As their passions grow amid a backdrop of military jealousy, the deafening drum roll of war, and the heat of competition, we get a sense of foreboding. What follows is a psychological thriller worthy of the best war movies made, with resentment at the core and murder at the heart. |
