I had a hard time sympathizing with any of the characters in this movie, but it was entertaining. The only thing that bugged me were the couple “YOU IDIOT!!!” moments, like when the lawyer slips on the blood of his friend. Come on! Also, where exactly was the housboat “adrift” at the end? in the ocean? on a raging river? I couldn’t tell, but it just didn’t look natural.

I like movies like this – they’re set in a period, but don’t try to be “epics” or something – just little slices of life. This movie is worth seeing just for the quotes from the Cunnigham character: “Love is a dung hill and I am but a cock that climbs atop it to crow”, etc.
King Kong – 1976
I haven’t seen it in 15 years, but I do remember it was kind of dumb but I enjoyed it. See it only once though, it’s not worth additional viewings (few movies are, but for some reason, this one stands out with that characteristic)
