Viewing Notes
A strange, interesting film. Sinatra does a great job in the lead role; short, curt delivery, deadpan facial expressions backed with great, humanistic dialogue. Jacqueline Bisset is gorgeous in this and criminally underused. I wanted more from that particular character and subplot. Great supporting cast including a nice turn by Jack Klugman. Also Robert Duvall and the always great Lloyd Bochner.
