Bryan C Feb 22 Excellent movie have owned it for years I saw it when it first came out and have shown it to many friends who never heard of it and were blown away by the acting and gloomy atmosphere. Highly recommended. See more 08/14/2017 A movie I've loved for 20 years. Just the right doses of crude, white beauty, softness, cold steel. A dream and a nightmare. Acted with precision.
