September 24 1975 

THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR, directed by Sidney Pollack, written by Lorenzo Semple Jr. and David Rayfiel, from the novel Six Days of the Condor by James Grady, premieres in New York. After dumb luck saves him from a professional hit that claims the lives of all seven of his co-workers, a bookish CIA analyst's sleuthing leads him to a group of rabid right-wing intelligence operatives embedded deep in the CIA itself. Chilly, serpentine political conspiracy classic featuring Robert Redford, Faye Dunaway, Cliff Robertson and Max Von Sydow.
