Zusammenfassung
'Company Business' is a 1991 American action-thriller directed by Nicholas Meyer. The film stars Gene Hackman as Sam Boyd, a rogue CIA agent drawn back into service for a risky hostage trade in post-Cold War Germany. As Boyd and his Soviet counterpart Grushenko (played by Mikhail Baryshnikov) struggle to complete their mission amidst betrayals and unexpected alliances, they must also contend with the shifting political landscape of the newly united Germany. The movie offers a blend of action, comedy, and drama, exploring themes of loyalty, trust, and the changing nature of espionage in a world no longer divided by the Iron Curtain.
