Midnight Run

Jack Walsh (De Niro) is a tough ex- cop turned bounty hunter. Jonathan 'The Duke' Mardukas (Grodin) is a sensitive accountant who embezzled $15 million from the Mob, gave it to charity, and then jumped bail. Jack's in for a cool $100,000 if he can deliver the Duke from New York to L.A. on time. And alive. Sounds like just another Midnight Run (a piece of cake in bounty hunter slang), but it turns into a cross country chase. The FBI is after the Duke to testify- the Mob is after him for revenge- and Walsh is after him to just shut up.
