About this product

Product Information

While investigating the death of a local union leader, an ambitious young reporter (Sally Field as Megan) becomes involved in a dangerous triangle of love, deceit, and national espionage. After all story leads fall through, shady government agent Rosen cajoles Megan into befriending financier, Gallagher (Paul Newman), a man with filial ties to the Mafia. Becoming Gallagher's confidant, Megan conducts a secret investigation of his life and is soon convinced that Gallagher is involved with the murder. Megan then publishes an article containing a staggering amount of incriminating evidence against him.Written by American journalist Kurt Luedtke, ABSENCE OF MALICE takes an honest look at the world of journalism. Its dialogue and characters are of the upmost realism. Newman delivers a riveting performance as the innocent "patsy," fingered by the government. Director Pollack and writer Kurt Luedtke team up again four years after this film to script the epic OUT OF AFRICA.

  • Good movie about sloppy journalism

    This has always been one of my favorites. Sally Field gives a good performance as a newspaper reporter who makes some serious mistakes. Paul Newman is terrific, as usual. And Wilford Brimley is a scene-stealer.

  • Good performances by good actors.

    Entertaining and very appropriate with what is going on with the media of today. Funny how Hollywood has turned from making films of corrupt officials and media to joining them in the spewing of false information.

  • A Paul Newman Gem

    A great commentary on what lengths the media will go to get a story and rely on Absence of Malice to protect them. Extraordinary performance by Paul Newman. The last of the great Hollywood male stars. Sally Field is also excellent. I have watch the last scene where all the main players are in the same room a numbers of times. Never gets old. Again, a great movie.
