Secret Service Agent Frank Horrigan (Clint Eastwood) is a fairly successful Agent working for the President, yet the guilt of not being able to save President John F. Kennedy back in 1963 still haunts him. When a lunatic assassin named "Booth", a.k.a. Mitch Leary (John Malkovich), begins to haunt and torment Frank with phone calls about his failure to save Kennedy and the threats to assassinate the President (Jim Curley), Frank must take action and protect the President at all costs, even if it causes him humiliation. Does Frank have what it takes to take a bullet?—commanderblue
