113 minute running time so 13 minutes too long, but this was good, a green-go for sure. Alan Ladd had the good sense to underwrite Larry Kasdan in his first W.D. By movie … William Hurt with his 70s porn ‘stache, young Ted Danson with black hair … good dialogue, well written, film noir brought into the 80s … Hurt drives a ‘64 Corvette Sting Ray convertible … and I think Mary Ann Simpson drives a TR6, but I couldn’t really tell … lots of smokin’ and drinkin’ … “Please, Ned, do it.” He doesn’t ask, “Are you sure?” like I would have, ruining more than the movie … jogging and smoking, Pete Suttmeier style … young Mickey Rourke with earring (non fag ear) … look at the size of the rock that crooked bastard bought her … good story, well told, I enjoyed it though I definitely could have shaved 10 minutes off … John Farr recommends it too.
