Little Nikita (Richard Benjamin, 1988)
Poitier plays FBI agent Roy Parmenter who meets young Jeff Grant when the teen applies for the Air Force Academy. But some information catches Parmenter's eye and alerts him that Jeff is the son of sleeper Soviet agents, planted in the US many years ago. When he finds that KGB operative Karpov is trying to disturb the reluctant Grants to go after a renegade Russian spy, the two cold war adversaries become once again engaged in a battle of wits and nerves with the fate of the Grants at stake.
The Bedford Incident, (James B.Harris, 1965)
Nerve-wracking suspense surrounds The Bedford Incident, the tale of a U.S. naval vessel on a routine NATO patrol that ends up in a freakish showdown with a Russian submarine. Richard Widmark is Capt. Eric Finlander, the maniacal commander who drives his tense crew to the brink of of nervous exhaustion. Sidney Poitier is Ben Munceford, photojournalist aboard, assigned to record a 'typical' mission. His moral indignation is put to the test by the captain's obsession with forcing the sub to the surface. Several crew members are at their breaking points as Finlander continues his prowl. Especially affected is a former German U-board commander, now aboard the Bedford as a NATO observer, portrayed by Eric Portman.
