Ok, I admit it, I've watched this movie countless times..., 20 April 2001
10/10
Author: John from United States

This movie seems to have vanished from the minds of most movie lovers. I really don't know how well it did at the box office when it was released in 1968 but I found it on TNT about 10 years ago and I thought it was great. It may be a little predictable but I think it has a great story and acting. Brooke Bundy is outstanding as a teenager who can't communicate with her father (Lloyd Bochner, who later gained fame for the scene in Dynasty where his character dies while having sex with Alexis Carrington, played by the under-rated Joan Collins) and so she runs away. Patty McCormack (still the bad seed!) is very good as a runaway who comes to a bad end. Kevin Coughlin (who would later die in a car accident) has a good role as Dewey, the runaway with a good heart. Also in the cast is Dick Sargeant (the 'other' Darrin Stevens) and Richard Dreyfuss as a car thief as well as a few bit players who look familiar but probably aren't. I have this movie taped if anyone is interested.
