The Squeeze 1978 R, 100 min. Genre: Action aka: Diamond Thieves
Director: Antonio Margheriti Cast: Lee Van Cleef, Karen Black, Edward Albert, Lionel Stander, Robert Alda, Angelo Infanti, Antonella Murgia, Peter Carsten, Dan van Husen, Dyane Silverstein, Ron Van Clief, Roy Brocksmith
Chris (Lee Van Cleef) is talked into coming out of retirement for one more heist using his talent to help a German group pull off a million dollar theft. But he gets wind of the fact that his associates intend to kill him after completion of the job, so he beats them to the punch, killing them. However, Chris is wounded in the process. Luckily, he has a perfect nursemaid–Clarisse (Karen Black) to help him recover. One of Lee Van Cleef's weaker films.
