A detective story, but really a story about idealism. What is a flatfoot, but a mobile package of morals and codes? Elliot Gould embodies those codes by never shedding his tie, by ignoring the sex and drugs floating around him, by driving an anachronism and, ultimately, by shooting his best friend in cold blood. Sterling Hayden is drunk muscle with a beard attached. Wish I could find the soundtrack.
Screened at the Brattle Theater with Elliot Gould in person
