Great cast!, 18 February 2006
5/10
Author: hamanncrosscreek from USA

A little known film with a who's who list of 70s character actors. Peter Fonda a little too laid back, but quite good. Harry Dean Stanton,one of his typical eccentric roles with anger boiling just below the surface. The late great Warren Oates a little over the top. Margot Kidder in one of her early roles is beautiful and a natural actress.Forget about the superman films,she's better in this small role.A painfully thin Elizabeth Ashley is very good as the frustrated wife of a fishing guide.Burgess Meredith steals the show as the feisty judge. Sylvia Miles as his sultry secretary/girlfriend. Joe Spinell,William Hickey,John Quade,Louise Latham and Warren Kemmerling round out the excellent cast. The story however isn't as impressive and its bizarre and abrupt conclusion leaves the viewer unsatisfied and disappointed. This is one of those movies that could of been great but just missed the mark.
