Viewing Notes

Completely of its time with lots of casual overt racist remarks, sexism, etc. It’s hard for me to accept that all of that was pretty normal then too, but it was. And not out of character for an asshole California cop either.

Murphy is so damn young in this, 21 years old! Lots of great character actors and Hill staples in supporting roles as well, including David Patrick Kelly. Sadly, Annette O’Toole doesn’t get more screen time.
