Against All Odds is a 1984 American neo-noir romantic thriller film directed by Taylor Hackford and starring Rachel Ward, Jeff Bridges and James Woods alongside Jane Greer, Alex Karras, Richard Widmark and Dorian Harewood. It is a remake to Out of the Past in which Greer played the femme fatale and it was also written by Daniel Mainwaring, which in-turn is based on his novel Build My Gallows High. The film's plot is about an aging American football star who is hired by a mobster to find his girlfriend.
The film's soundtrack, nominated for a Grammy Award, featured songs from Big Country, Kid Creole & the Coconuts, Stevie Nicks and Genesis breakout stars Mike Rutherford, Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins, who wrote and performed the title song, which was nominated for an Academy Award[1] as Best Original Song[2] and for a Golden Globe Award[3] as Best Original Song, as well as winning the Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Male.[4][5]
