The Enforcer (1976 film)
The Enforcer is a 1976 American neo-noir action-thriller film and the third in the Dirty Harry film series. Directed by James Fargo in his feature directorial debut, it stars Clint Eastwood who reprises his lead role as Inspector "Dirty" Harry Callahan. The film co-stars Tyne Daly, DeVeren Bookwalter and Bradford Dillman, with John Mitchum and Harry Guardino each reprising their roles from previous entries for their final appearances in the series.
The film follows the further adventures of Inspector Callahan (Eastwood) as he and his new partner, rookie Inspector Kate Moore (Daly) team up to foil a terrorist organization made up of disgruntled Vietnam War veterans led by Bobby Maxwell (Bookwalter). It was written by Stirling Silliphant and Dean Riesner, from a story by Gail Morgan Hickman and S. W. Schurr and is the only Dirty Harry film not scored by Lalo Schifrin; instead, the film’s soundtrack was composed by Jerry Fielding.
In Marin County, two gas-company workers are lured by a scantily clad woman named Miki to a remote spot in Mill Valley and killed by Bobby Maxwell. A group calling itself the People's Revolutionary Strike Force (PRSF), led by Maxwell, poses as a terrorist organization to conceal their true purpose.
San Francisco Police Department Inspector Harry Callahan and his partner Frank DiGiorgio deal with a con artist at a restaurant and then respond to a holdup at a liquor store. The robbers take hostages and demand a police car to escape in. Callahan drives his car into the store and guns the robbers down in the resulting chaos. Callahan's superior, Captain Jerome McKay, reprimands him for using "excessive force" and transfers him to the personnel department to work on promotion boards. Callahan learns the mayor's new affirmative-action rules require promotions go to several women, including Kate Moore, a senior desk officer with no field experience.
When the PRSF steals M72 LAW rockets, M16 rifles, a taser, and other weapons from a warehouse, DiGiorgio and another officer catch them in the act. Maxwell fatally stabs a security guard at the front gate, then DiGiorgio, runs over his partner, and kills one of his own badly injured followers having been shot by DiGorgio accidentally. Callahan transfers back to homicide, dismayed to find Moore is his new partner. At a United States Army demonstration, Callahan pulls Moore out of the dangerous backblast area of a LAW rocket and tells her that he doubts her ability to perform in dangerous situations.
When Callahan and Moore leave an autopsy at the Hall of Justice, a bomb explodes in the restroom. They capture the bomber after a foot chase and meet "Big" Ed Mustapha, the leader of a black militant group called Uhuru,which the bomber formerly belonged to recently. Callahan makes a deal with Mustapha for information, but McKay arrests the group for the PRSF's crimes. With his credibility damaged, Callahan refuses to participate in a televised press conference that the publicity-seeking mayor intends to use to commend the partners for Mustapha's arrest. McKay suspends Callahan and takes his badge but Moore pledges to continue to help him and they share drinks in a sign of mutual respect.
The PRSF ambushes the mayor's motorcade outside a Giants game at Candlestick Park, killing his bodyguard and aide and taking him hostage. Callahan bails out Mustapha, who leads him to a priest responible for mentoring Maxwell. At the church where Callahan tackled the bomber, Wanda, one of Maxwell's teammates, attempts to shoot Callahan, but she is killed by Moore. The priest reveals that the PRSF members are hiding on Alcatraz Island. The duo arrive on the island and split up to free the mayor. After killing the remaining members of the PRSF, Moore warns an exposed Callahan of Maxwell, who then shoots her instead. Callahan avenges Moore by cornering Maxwell in an old guard tower and blowing it up with a LAW rocket, obliterating Maxwell. Ignoring the mayor's profuse gratitude, Callahan abandons him and walks over to his partner's corpse as McKay arrives in a helicopter and announces to the now dead Maxwell and his men that the SFPD will give in to all of his demands.
The first script was written in 1974 by two young San Francisco-area film students, Gail Morgan Hickman and S.W. Schurr, with the title Moving Target. After seeing Dirty Harry and Magnum Force, the two fledgling writers decided to pen a screenplay of their own featuring the character of Inspector Harry Callahan. Inspired by the Patty Hearst kidnapping in 1974, the storyline had Inspector Harry Callahan going up against a violent militant group reminiscent of the Symbionese Liberation Army. In the script, the militants kidnap and ransom the mayor of San Francisco.
