    ...but the script was what it was. If you are into nice breasts, this is a decent movie for you. If you are more into an understandable plot, then perhaps you should pass. My wife and I kept wondering when the point of the story was finally going to be revealed. I eventually was, in about the last 5 minutes of the tale.

    A decent private eye film with a little violence and more thinking about sex than sex scenes. This is one of Melanie Griffith's first roles and she really stretched her art playing the part of a self destructive, oversexed teenager. It is also one of James Woods' first, as a wacko mechanic. The story is good and the acting is first rate. There is a lot of pondering that Gene Hackman thought was acting back in those days, but that is probably Arthur Penn trying to show that the movie is more than entertainment. That and a consistent problem with motivation reduces my rating by a star.

    Yes   |   No

    Three of us have viewed this movie and all three of us concluded that it was a strange movie. It is worth watching, but I would not request to see it again.
