The Ambassador background

The Ambassador

An American diplomat in Israel employs unorthodox tactics to broker a peaceful resolution to the region's long-standing conflict, while facing numerous obstacles and personal peril.

Robert Mitchum stars as a US ambassador to Israel, navigating a treacherous political landscape as he attempts to address the Palestinian question, all while facing criticism from various factions. His personal life becomes complicated when his wife begins an affair with a PLO chief. Meanwhile, Rock Hudson, in his final theatrical film role, plays Mitchum's loyal security officer, who not only saves his life during an assassination attempt but also tries to help him find a resolution to the conflicts surrounding them.
