Movies Watched -- The Parallax View (1974)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

102 minute running time so the perfect length… fed into the conspiracy theories that came out of the tumultuous 1960s, political assassination, shadow government, CIA stuff, distrust of the Warren Commission report, the investigative reporter as hero (Watergate era), etc. … Warren Beatty plays Jim Morrison, sexiest man alive with the movie contracts to prove it, bra-less Paula Prentiss and her fabulous breasts in white sweater … shocking ending … this movie should be a double feature with The Conversation (also from 1974). There are some nice touches in this movie such as the damn spill gates flood, the redneck sheriff, and the final scene with runaway golf cart on the convention floor. I guess it’s a green-go, though this was a re-watch for me so I sort of sped through it. It’s a John Farr reco too.

Jealous ex-lover face … my favorite scene
