The Hessen Conspiracy (DVD)

Frankfurt, Germany, 1945: The war is over, and a group of victorious U.S. Army officers - including cynical Colonel Jack Durant (Billy Zane of Titanic) and sexy young Lt. Kathleen Nash (Lyne Renee) - take over a castle that formerly belonged to the German royal family. But when Durant and Nash uncover a massive cache of priceless gems, the lovers hatch a plan to loot the treasure. Now, all they'll have to do is smuggle the German Crown Jewels into New York City, dodge military investigators, con a murderous mob boss and steal back their stolen fortune... all without double-crossing each other first. Michael Bowen (Kill Bill, LOST) co-stars in this lush neo-noir/thriller co-written by Nicholas Meyer, the Oscar nominated screenwriter of The Seven-Per-Cent Solution and Time After Time and director of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
