Story Synopsis:
The Gauntlet stars Clint Eastwood as a hard-drinking, burned-out Phoenix cop on a mission to bring back a hard-core hooker (Locke) from Las Vegas to testify in an important trial—that is, if some very bad guys don’t see her dead first. There are lots of explosions, gunfire, helicopters and special effects plus a great jazz orchestral score by Jerry Fielding.
