The Conversation 1974 Full Movie Online

The Conversation – A Thrilling Mystery

Harry Caul, a surveillance expert in San Francisco, specializes in wiretapping services. He and his team are hired by a client, who identifies himself as “the Director”, to eavesdrop on a couple walking through Union Square. Despite the background noise, Caul filters and merges the tapes to create a clear recording with ambiguous meaning. Caul is intensely private, obsessively guarding his own personal life, haunted by guilt from a past job that resulted in three deaths.

The Paranoia Sets In

Despite Caul’s insistence that he is not responsible for how his clients use the surveillance, he is troubled by guilt and his Catholic faith. When he discovers a potentially dangerous phrase in the recording, “He’d kill us if he got the chance,” Caul becomes increasingly paranoid. His attempt to deliver the recording is thwarted, and he believes he is being followed and tricked.

A Twisted Turn of Events

After a party at his workshop, Caul spends the night with a woman, Meredith, and the tapes are stolen. He receives a call from Martin Stett, the Director’s assistant, informing him that they have the tapes, and that the Director couldn’t wait any longer, so Caul must also deliver the pictures taken, and collect his money in a meeting with them, that same day. In that meeting, Caul learns that the woman in the recording is the Director’s wife, involved in an affair. Caul, suspecting murder, books a hotel room next to the one mentioned in the recording, and overhears a heated argument. Convinced he has overheard a murder, Caul breaks into the room; he initially finds no evidence, until he flushes the toilet and finds it clogged and overflowing with blood.

The Shocking Revelation

Attempting to confront the Director, Caul discovers the wife is alive and unharmed, as is her lover. A newspaper headline reveals an executive’s supposed death in a car accident, leading Caul to realize that the couple actually murdered the Director. He missed the emphasis on “us” in the recording, not only signifying the couple’s fear of being killed by the Director if he discovered the affair, but also their own plan to murder him first.

The Final Showdown

Stett calls Caul at his apartment, and warns him not to investigate, playing a recording of Caul’s saxophone to prove they are listening. Caul frantically searches for bugs in his apartment, destroying nearly everything in it. In the end, Caul sits alone amid the wreckage, playing his saxophone.
