Movie Info The circumstances surrounding the death of crime novelist Harlan Thrombey are mysterious, but there's one thing that renowned Detective Benoit Blanc knows for sure - everyone in the. Jacknife is a 1989 American film directed by David Jones and starring Robert De Niro, Ed Harris and Kathy Baker. The film focuses on a small, serious story, with emphasis on characterization and the complex tension between people in a close relationship. Before the action movie The Hunted hit the screens in 2003, many had never heard of Tom Brown Jr or his signature knife, The Tracker. Brown is an esteemed wilderness survival instructor and his experience teaching and assisting law enforcement agencies track down fugitives, missing persons, and prison escapees provided enough hair-raising possibilities to inspire.

Movie Tags:knife. Movies Like The Knife. The Battle of the Eagles. The first Yugoslav Partisan air force unit. Loosely based on historica. Just finished watching 'The Jagged Edge' 1985 movie with Jeff Bridges and Glenn Close. I vote it's a Buck (or prop look alike) The movie takes it's name from the witnesses testifying on the stand when describing the knife that it had a jagged edge. Movie prop error?
