Die Professionals (1972)
Gangster Nick Devlin (Lee Marvin), ein harter Typ, wird nach Arkansas geschickt, um eine halbe Millon Dollar Schulden von "Mary Ann" (Gene Hackman) einzutreiben, der inmitten der wogenden Kornfelder mit Fleisch, Drogen und jungen Mädchen handelt. Nick rettet das Mädchen Poppy (Sissy Spacek) aus den Fängen der Gangster, gerät aber zunehmend selbst in deren Schussfeld... wird er ihnen das Handwerk legen oder (wie sein Vorgänger) in Form von Würstchen nach Chicago zurückgeschickt werden?
