after recently see and cry uncle and by the same director and i decide to seek this out and be i glad i do . this be an extraordinarily good film . far and far good than it would seem likely give the ingredient . how many time have we have to suffer the embarrassment of someone play a middle class dad mix it with the flower child aagh . and yet here thanks to a perfect script it be make believable . not ideal and not good or bad but believable . peter boyle and a the work class and hippie and nier hater and dennis patrick a the uptight suit and play their respective part immaculately and i can not remember ever see the two class get together like this without thing get sentimental . susan sarandon be effective a a hippie chick but doesn not have all that much to do in her first film . this be a truly and must see film capture a it do that very short period in western and in particular u time when the counter culture be about to bust itself wide open .
