...pervades the filmic vomit that is The Couch Trip. For example, Walter Matthau's hair is, at one point in the film, realistically disheveled: congrats to the hairdresser. Also, there is a brief scene in which the camera lingers on a TV screen featuring Chevy Chase in a hilarious cameo, selling condoms in a commercial...
...beautiful Chen gives a moving performances as Pu Yi's vulnerable, opium-addicted wife. Peter O'Toole, in a cameo as Pu Yi's English tutor, is like most of the rest of the cast in that he more or less just adds to the scenery. This film really belongs to Bertolucci. Though Lone and Chen have some wonderful scenes, particularly at the end of the film, the most stunning aspect of the film is the cinematography.

Is the plot conflict as pure as an archetypal Western shoot-out? Then one bad guy, the Cowboy (Robert Picardo), will twirl his hair dryer like a six-shooter while he sings I'm an Old Cowhand; and another, the thug-chauffeur Igoe (Vernon Wells), will shoot a man through...
