Across the Line: The Exodus of Charlie Wright (1:34) 2010
Charlie Wright (Aidan Quinn) is a forty one year old financial whiz worth billions. Unfortunately, the money came from a gigantic Ponzi scheme that is now unraveling. As the FBI are closing in to arrest Charlie and his partner, Charlie flees to Mexico. Although he can travel to and live well in any country, he lives in a flea bag hotel in Tijuana. Charlie is looking for a daughter who doesn't know he exists. As Wright is searching for his daughter, The FBI and mobsters are searching for him. He defrauded some unsavory Russians and Mexicans who want their money back or want him dead. Who will get to Charlie first? The law or the outlaws? Will he reunite with his long lost daughter? Aidan Quinn is one of my favorite actors. This performance was good for this straight to video movie. Mario Van Peebles and Andy Garcia star as opposing forces on the look out for Charlie. This is a typical TV movie, not great but fits the bill when you're home fighting off a cold and low energy.
