Hopscotch DVD Summary
Walter Matthau
plays a CIA agent who's been confined by office politics to a desk job.
The disgruntled Matthau quits the service and heads to Europe, where he links up with former lover (an fellow ex-agent)
Glenda Jackson
.
All goes smoothly until Matthau acts on the advice of yet another retired agent, Russian
Herbert Lom
, who suggests that Matthau write a tell-all autobiography.
Spitefully, Matthau sends out copies of his first chapter to the heads of the CIA agencies throughout the world--and from that point on, he and Jackson don't have a moment's peace.
This delights Matthau: now that all of his former colleagues are chasing after him, he has a reason to get up in the morning.
As written by
Brian Garfield
,
Hopscotch
was a conventionally serious espionage novel.
As adapted for the big screen by Garfield and
Bryan Forbes
,
Hopscotch
is a lively exercise in cloak-and-dagger comedy, even when the pursuit of Matthau turns deadly towards the end.
