00:14Mr. Holcroft, what I have to tell you concerns your father.
00:20I was 18 months old when my mother and I left Germany.
00:24He has nothing to do with me, my mother, or my life!
00:30A letter from your father written to you in the last days of the war.
00:34During the death throes of the Third Reich, three Nazi generals make a pact.
00:38A covenant for their children.
00:40And a deadly legacy for the world.
00:43Mr. Holcroft, I'm talking of you having absolute control of four and a half billion dollars.
00:56Four and a half billion?
00:59Forty years on, Noel Holcroft is suddenly heir to one of the greatest fortunes in history.
01:06Now, all he has to do is stay alive to collect it.
01:10Could you please point that gun the other way? You are making me very nervous.
01:14An ordinary man.
01:16This wasn't my idea, you know. I don't usually meet people in churches. I meet people in their offices or
01:20at lunch.
01:21In extraordinary danger.
01:23You're right, Mr. Holcroft.
01:25We are in danger and we do need to talk.
01:28I've known about the Covenant since I was a child.
01:35Robert Ludlam's The Holcroft Covenant.
01:38Do you think you can persuade yourself not to sign?
01:41How can I do that? How do I know?
01:50Now you can see how imperative it is that the Covenant is signed at once.
02:00Four people, a high-powered motor car, and a bomb. And you can't deal with one tottering old lady.
02:05I'll kill him, of course.
02:08Or you can.
02:11If you like.
02:13Starring Michael Caine.
02:15I like.
02:17Anthony Andrews.
02:20And Victoria Tennant.
02:23John Frankenheimer's film of Robert Ludlam's international best-selling thriller.
02:34The Holcroft Covenant.
