Sword of Gideon

In this taut, made-for-cable drama, Steven Bauer heads the cast as the leader of an Israeli counterterrorist commando squad out to avenge the shocking, cold-blooded killing of 11 of their countrymen at the 1972 Munich Olympics. Based on the George Jonas book Vengeance, the film also stars Rod Steiger, Michael York and Leslie Hope, with a cameo appearance by Colleen Dewhurst as Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir.
