Scorpio is a 1973 spy film directed by Michael Winner. The movie is typical of those dealing with political deception and paranoia in the early 1970s.[neutrality is disputed]
It is about a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) agent named Cross (Burt Lancaster), a successful but retiring assassin, who is training "Scorpio" to replace him. Cross is teaching him as much about protecting himself from his patrons and never trusting anyone as how to get away clean.
The CIA tells "Scorpio", Jean Laurier (Alain Delon), to kill Cross for suspected treason and collaboration with the Russians. Scorpio is threatened with jail on a false narcotics charge if he doesn't cooperate.
In a failed break-in of Cross's home, CIA agents shoot and kill his wife Sarah (Joanne Linville), causing Cross to go on the run and seek protection from the Russians, who want the secrets he knows and maybe revenge for past acts. Cross is very successful at evading capture, and even kills the CIA director who was responsible for his wife's death. However, the CIA gains evidence that Cross is working with Scorpio's girlfriend.

Plot: For centuries, a legend had spoken of a portal to another plane of existence. It was said whoever found it would access divine skills, knowledge and power. This legend comes to life when a school teacher (Katy Hux) comes across a clue her bygone father had unraveled decades earlier - the location of the Stone of Anubis - the very artifact that would act as the key to this Portal. A series of very unusual circumstances compel Katy to seek the Stone before it falls into the hands of the most dangerous demon on Earth... oil baroness Sheville Du Sauvignac. Yet for Katy this quest gets personal when Sheville seduces her fiancée - attorney Sam Leo - turning him into the mayor of their city, New Gaia. Of course, going on a world-wide quest for the Stone while fighting the Heiress to the throne of Hell will be no walk in the park. Katy will first have to master newly-found fighting skills, as well as round up a rag tag team of warriors to help her along. Time is running out. The Portal is soon to open. Wicked weather will wreak its wrath. Hell's fury will soon be upon us.
