Movies Watched -- Klute (1971)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

118 minute running time so about 20 minutes too long, which is a shame … this isn’t terrible, I didn’t hate it. The squalor of 1971 New York City on full display as is a glimpse of the World Trade Center (under construction) … Roy Scheider with a bowl cut … Donald Sutherland playing a square but not really … Hanoi Jane wearing her corduroy jacket and no bra to see her therapist … It gets a solid yellow rating, though John Farr recommended it. There were a lot of decent 1971 movies (French Connection, Straw Dogs, etc.), and this one fits right in there to give a flavor of the times.
