GOOD ACTING , POOR STORY
The 3 main stars acted their parts well. The story line was thin. Warren Beatty was the driving force he worked and was not a likeable character as he was mainly sullen. Jack Nicholson had the best comic lines again his character was just nasty. Stockard Channing character was was a rich sex manic, silly and easily manipulated by any man to cross her path and bed. I watched the film to the end, but other than solving a murder that did not take place, little was resolved . The only character worth a mention was the land lady of the bungalows who observed the goings on with an open mind and an open mouth.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
