The Devil's Own

The Devil's Own is a 1997 American action thriller film directed by Alan J. Pakula, starring Harrison Ford and Brad Pitt, with Margaret Colin, Rubén Blades, Treat Williams, and George Hearn in supporting roles. The plot revolves around Frankie McGuire, a soldier in the Provisional Irish Republican Army who comes to the United States to obtain black market anti-aircraft missiles, but his plan is complicated by Irish-American policeman Tom O'Meara, whom the IRA member has come to regard as family. The film was released in the United States on March 26, 1997, by Columbia Pictures. It received mixed reviews from critics and was a box office disappointment in North America though it performed better overseas. This was the final film of director Pakula, who died the year after its release, and the final film photographed by Gordon Willis, who retired soon after.
