Saw it again tonight. What a wonderful trio: Quinn, Gleason and Rooney!Things like that make you lament the good days of Hollywood.
The irony is - today, somewhere in that "rest of the world" someone is making a movie that is as human, as intelligent and just simply as well put together as this one. Less naive - forty years have passed - but still a movie about people. A Man Without Past is perhaps the modern day movie like that.
How sad that nothing like that is possible any more.
