...London suburb, the police are engaged in an all-out man hunt for a sex pervert who molests children. Connery is a detective who brings a peculiar passion to the pursuit. When a prime suspect (Ian Bannen) is captured, Connery takes over the interrogation and in the process beats the man to death. This much we know almost from the beginning, so the film is less of a whodunit than a whydunit...
...cuteness of The Matchmaker and too little on the human comedy, makes one wonder if the concept of naivete describes the play itself rather than the subject of the comedy. Well-played farce ought to exaggerate normal human foibles, arousing the sympathy of the audience. This production tends to pervert the characters' behavior in form as well as degree.

He wanted some stag movies, one of those blue films that were being made in Hollywood, and he said he'd come up with the money if we could get a really hot stag film. Noah told me this on the telephone. So I scoured Hollywood and came up with some film. It was disgusting. I ran it off at home to see what it was like-Billie [Actress Billie Dove] was with me and she nearly died...
...reduced to desperate paranoia. The only thing the Mothers ever talk about is getting drunk, getting laid, and getting paid. They all hate working for Zappa and think he is ripping them off. They are sure that he has their rooms bugged, so he can steal all their ideas, pervert them, copyright them, and claim them as his own. (At one point we actually see Larry the Dwarf, disguised as Zappa, transcribing a tape of the band into a music notebook and then perverting it by pouring coffee all over the page and hitting it with a blunt object...
