Movie Description Although it only aired for one season (1971-1972), British television series The Persuaders holds a permanent place in the pantheon of cult classics. In addition to its distinguished Brit TV pedigree--producer Robert S. Baker (The Saint), screenwriters Terry Nation (Doctor Who) and Brian Clemens (The Avengers)--The Persuaders also boasts an inspired, once-in-a-lifetime pairing of screen legends Tony Curtis and Roger Moore (in a pre-Bond role). Moore plays bored English aristocrat Lord Brett Sinclair; Curtis a brash, self-made millionaire from the Bronx named Danny Wilde. Under threat of imprisonment, the unlikely duo are forced into a life of danger and espionage by a judge who wants to track down criminals the court couldn't convict. Together, the two wealthy playboys jet set across Europe in their quest to rid the world of villainy--with plenty of fast cars and faster women to help them along the way. Brimming with '70s charm and a healthy dose of tongue-in-cheek humor, this 4-disc box set collects the first 13 episodes of The Persuaders' one and only season.
