    How’d I miss this one? I immediately thought this is what Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was going for. A look at Los Angeles with foreign eyes that is now nostalgic. Shot I guess in 72 or 73 when the end of the hippie era was getting ugly. Some amazingly inky-black night shooting on location was impressive. As was watching folks watch Star Trek on reruns with cat food commercials on an old RCA TV, using coin-operated razors in public bathrooms, driving giant gas-guzzlers all to some funky jazz. The film is mostly and mercifully quiet with just the sounds of a city. The action is moved forward not by explanation but by reaction. Most of the actors that show up for brief stints will be immediately recognized. Angie Dickenson as a middle-aged trophy wife who shows off her bikini body. Georgia Engel as the mother of Jackie Earle Haley, Michel Constanin, Ted de Corsia, Talia Shire…. Apparently this was mentioned in Los Angeles Plays itself. I need to revisit that documentary. Directed by Jacques Deray who did La Piscine a few years earlier. His Symphony for a Massacre is another gem of his.
