I agree with you, specially Estelle Parsons and Melvin Douglas. I think Gene Hackman was too stiff.flipp525 wrote:You missed the boat. This film has some beautiful performances that manage to transcend the "datedness".

Rather mediocre and dated film. Gene Hackman clearly is lead. The soundtrack is horrendous.
What I didn't like was how the movie was directed as a whole.
