Three Days of the Condor: Difference between revisions

** {{spoiler|Also it's suggested that Turner will eventually be killed too, as he is unwilling to flee the country as Joubert advises.}}

{{quote| '''Joubert:''' [[Affably Evil|Would you please]] step away from the window.<br />

'''Janice:''' ''(calmly)'' I won't scream.<br />

* [[555]]: Used with several numbers.

* [[Front Organisation]]: American Literary Historical Society (the analyst group that Turner works for) and Five Continents Imports used by the [[Renegade Operation]].

* [[Government Conspiracy]]

* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Inverted. {{spoiler|Joubert kills Atwood only because The Company hired him back. But while Joubert claims he doesn't kill Turner at the end because The Company didn't figure on Joubert finding Turner at Atwood's home, the assassin seems genuinely relieved he doesn't have to kill him.}}

{{quote| '''Higgins''': You never complained until yesterday.<br />

'''Turner''': You didn't start killing ''my friends'' until yesterday! }}

* [[Slap Slap Kiss]]: Turner kidnaps Hale in an attempt to evade his pursuers. Hale is obviously terrified of this gun-toting lunatic raving about working for the CIA, and doesn't appreciate getting tied up half the time. But the first chance they get, [[A Match Made in Stockholm|they start making out]].

* [[Sniper Pistol]]: Joubert uses a silenced and scoped Broomhandle Mauser at one stage.

* [[Stockholm Syndrome]]: Kathy's decision to sleep with Turner clearly has elements of this. {{spoiler|Until an assassin bursts into her home the next day, she has no reason to believe that anything Turner says is true.}}

* [[World War II]]: Mentioned in-film by Houseman's CIA boss. He reminisces about serving in both the great wars and laments "I miss that kind of clarity."
