Half Moon Street (1986)

People obsessed with money make me fucking sick. People obsessed with politics would come in a close second. If it wasn't for Sigourney Weaver and Michael Caine I’d have been lost at sea for something to entertain me in Half Moon's political thriller climate. Sigourney is a part-time escort girl with a PhD who uses her tits and her wits to make money. Caine is a work-hungry Lord who wants to watch her shave. Along the way there’s some underdeveloped nonsense about Arab and Israeli politics.
Polanski could've maybe did something more interesting with it.
