i have be on a bad run of film . this be a clinker about an arson plot and a psychopath . tom skerrit and whom i really enjoy and be pretty young here . he be a builder with a passion and but he have a partner whose profit motive include over insuring and burning . into the mix come an agent and who be drown and his daughter and and her nut case boyfriend . james mason play the insurance investigator . any idiot and give a little warning and would know something be rotten in the nation of australia . still and they bumble their way . the most interesting thing to me be that the huge hotel that be go to be build and never get beyond be a bunch of stick . low budget and i guess . the plot could have be interest . maybe they should have hire a film editor ( the do . ) . half the time you do not know where the character be and but i guarantee a five million dollar payoff would have probably make a close watch on the structure mandatory . it doesn not work . although there be lot of neat fire .
