...best performance in the film. I actually thought at the time that she had a promising career ahead of her as an actress. What a shame...), Richard Dreyfuss (a shallow, hammy, wise-ass punk of an actor, but he was less offensive back then, and is used marvelously here), Harrison Ford (amusing), MacKenzie Phillips (see Harrison Ford), Candy Clark and--for a few seconds, Suzanne Somers. Paul LeMat is very fine, too. A poignant ending--not the moronic "Here's What Happened To Each Guy" part--but the final shots of Dreyfuss looking out over the valley from his plane...

Richards' single draws on two sources: Chuck Berry and Jimmy Cliff. The A side, "Run, Rudolph, Run," an old Johnny Marks-Marvin Brodie song once recorded by Berry, sounds exactly like "Roll Over Beethoven." Richards taught Harrison the lead to that one, and he's had fifteen years to brush it up. The result, predictably, is wonderful.

...always ended up looking like plastic laminate. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art by William Pereira is an early Western example of the genre; its equivalent on the East Coast was Lincoln Center in Manhattan, a large, poor parody of Michelangelo's Campidoglio in Rome, designed by Wallace Harrison, Max Abramovitz and by Philip Johnson, whose building was the New York State Theater. All the historical allusions in this corporate style (and there were plenty of them) were seriously trotted forth as an antidote to International Style purity. But they tended to escape the architects' control. Buildings mean things...
