Two of Europe's greatest stars feature in Anthony Asquith's study of courage and complex human relationships, set against the turbulent backdrop of revolution in Latin America. David Niven plays Englishman Tom Jordan, Leslie Caron his wife, Claire; David Opatoshu stars as the president of a strife-torn republic whom the couple risk their lives to help. Guns of Darkness is presented here in a brand-new transfer from original film elements in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.
Committed pacifist Tom Jordan's decision to help former President Rivera escape a military coup is a simple act of mercy that takes him and his wife to the edge of despair. It turns them into outlaws and fugitives, hunted by a vicious regime; yet it could also bring them together in a way they have never been before.
