The Librarians (2003 film)

William Clark (played by Michael Parks), a former associate of Simon (played by William Forsythe), hires Simon who, along with his pal mercenaries Toshko and G-Man, call themselves The Librarians. Their goal is to find Clark's missing granddaughter Amanda. With the help of his old friend, Irish (played uncredited by Burt Reynolds), Simon runs into Sandi (played by Erika Eleniak) at the strip club where Amanda was working before she disappeared. Simon soon learns that Sandi, who is working at this strip club, is actually a Chicago police detective and martial arts expert who is there trying to find her sister who's been missing for a year. Together they try to find Amanda and whether Sandi's sister is still alive. As Sandi and Simon get closer to the truth and each other, the danger and the heat will rise. ==Cast==
