Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outstanding
This is a great, great movie. Tom Conti is superb. Kelly McGillis is perfectly cast too. A gem of a story. I don't understand why this classic is not available on DVD.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A sweet, tragic character
Why was this rumpled, drunken, has-been, poet so appealing to women? Two words, Dylan Thomas. Tom Conti turned in a brilliant performance based loosely on the life of a soul who refused to go gentle into that good night. I loved this film from beginning to end.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I'm A Drunk BUT I Get To Have Sex With Lotsa Women!!!
Watching this movie calls for an immense "Suspension Of Disbelief" on the part of the viewer which I could not quite accomplish. This movie stars Tom Conti who plays a washed up alcoholic poet and yet for some obscure reason EVERY woman he meets wants to have sex with him!!! In reality a fine looking woman like Kelly McGillis would not even give this drunk the time of day but in this movie she falls for his charms whatever they may be.This drunk is so stupid that he is having sex with his dentist's ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outstanding!
I've been beating my chest about this seldom seen gem for years and nobody knows what I'm talking about! Tom Conti is outstanding in this and perfectly cast, Roberts Blossom, Lois Smith and of course, 1st seen, fresh & luminous Kelly McGillis is a treat! How I wish this charming yet odd piece would come out in DVD. My VHS copy is getting worn out!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Tom Conti is amazing
Tom Conti is truly amazing in this under-rated, little-seen gem. Backed by the equally amazing Roberts Blossom (who has never given a better performance), this sweet and sad movie will keep you laughing right up to the tragic but inevitable conclusion. A Must See!
