His first theatrical "feature" was One Spy Too Many (1966), an expansion of one of his Man From U.N.C.L.E. episodes. In both his small-screen work and his large-screen output, Sargent's work was distinguished by speed, efficiency, and equitable treatment of talented ensemble casts. "Joseph Sargent"'s best features include "The Taking of Pelham One Two Three" (1974) and "MacArthur" (1977); his best TV films include "Tribes" (1970), "Maybe I'll Come Home in the Spring" (1971), and the multipart "Lonesome Dove" sequel "Streets of Laredo" (1995). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
