Featured review
this is a hidden gem... quickly, the film transports you to a different world, one of varying shades of gray, skies, people, emotions, degrees of truth.... the cinematography is surprising and fresh for a movie that is more than 40 years old, the camera angles that tell more in a one-second frame than a lot of movies nowadays take minutes to set up and then fail to do... there are no special effects, but there are plenty of moods and thoughts carried on faces in close-up and in backgrounds that move the story along.. hayley is great, the scene where she re-enacts the murder alone is worth watching the movie for.. and buchholz also is fun to see and totally credible in how his heart has pushed him in ways he never thought he would go.... a very brave man indeed..
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe scene in which Gillie is reenacting the murder inside the apartment for the police was ad-libbed by Hayley Mills. Sir John Mills and Director J. Lee Thompson told her the basic plot for the scene and instructed her to just make it up.
Regarding daughter Hayley's acting abilities, John Mills said when they started filming "I simply couldn't believe what was happening. She looked as if she'd been born in front of a camera."
- GoofsThere were five shots fired. Later a policeman says that 'all four shots were fired from this gun'.
- Quotes
Gillie: Shalln't I ever see you again?
Korchinsky: Maybe... someday. It doesn't matter though. Whereever I am, you're still my friend.
