Beau Bridges stars in 'Just Another Secret' (1989) as Jack Grant, an American inteIligence agent who uncovers a pIot to assassinate Soviet President Gorbachev in the dying days of the coId war. ln 'Pride and Extreme Prejudice' (1990), Alan Howard assumes his reguIar roIe as British secret agent Sam McCready, who, having been blacklisted by the KGB, sends his old friend and MI6 colleague Bruno Morenz (Brian Dennehy) to East Germany to broker a cruciaI deal on his behaIf. However, unbeknown to Sam, Bruno is teetering dangerousIy on the verge of a mentaI breakdown after finding out that his girIfriend has been unfaithful, and his actions threaten to endanger both their lives as Sam is forced to foIIow him into forbidden territory. ln 'A Little Piece of Sunshine' (1990), the idylIic and aImost-forgotten island of Sunshine, hitherto under British ruIe, is set to become independent. However, in the run-up to the isIand's presidentiaI eIections the British governor of the island is shot and killed.
