Audience Member Karen Black is unhappy with her marriage, so she prays with her knees upward with a younger man (David Naughton! who also worked on Kidnapped!, the final film of Howard Avedis) after catching her husband, played by Tony Lo Bianco, aardvarking with one of his used car saleswomen. So begins the exploration of how a woman finds herself and tries to determine if marriage still makes sense in 1981. I'd say that this is a tender exploration of relationships and how the sexual revolution has changed male and female dynamics. But then I saw the Crown International Pictures logo at the beginning and that Howard Avedis directed this and I realized that we'd be seeing Karen Black in all manner of skimpy costumes. That said, man, I'll watch Karen Black in anything. Even this. But hey — there's a small role for Sybil Danning, as well as Sharon Farrell. And let's not forget Sybil also starred for Avedis in his next "affairs" flick, They're Playing with Fire, and Angel Tompkins seducing her students in The Teacher. Also — put this into your Letterboxd list of "Movies that have exotic dancing clubs where no one ever gets nude." Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member A subtle approach on marriage and infidelity. It tries to be sincere throughout. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member This was one of the better movies on a 12 pack movie set and I couldn't give it a 3 star rating. Kinda says something about the rest of them. This at least has an early role for David Naughton from American Werewolf in London and Karen Black. Also a very young Noah Hathaway from Never Ending Story and Troll makes his debut. The rest of the cast is dull as dishwater but if you're a fan of any of the actors above, then this is worth searching out. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Boring husband and his hot wife are in love, he cheats on her, they separate, and it's all predictable from then on in. So boring. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Tony Lo Bianco plays a race car driver and car dealer who lets his car business fall through the cracks and down the drain as he is having an affair with a female a work. Mean while his wife Karen Black finds out and starts her little romance with a student in her college class (Yea she likes the young ones). The marriage is about over when they decided to try and save it for there son. A True Seventies California Flick, 2 Stars.
