...drastic reduction of alternatives that comes after 3 a.m. For the benighted Yardling there are three basic choices: finish the Expos paper (unthinkable), go to sleep (dire in consequence), or stroll down to the Square and The Store which (almost) never shuts, to aid procrastination with brownies. Or Hershey bars. Or Milano cookies. Or Entenmann chocolate chip cookies. Or Brach's Giant Circus Peanuts. Or cigarettes. Or soda. Or "doughnuts that look like they're about to implode."

...movie is rescued by its director's brilliant gamesmanship; Richard Rush is a brilliant trickster who can bring a magical, dancing glow even to lackluster materials. Despite all the superfluous innuendos of Meaning, the impotent love story, the seductive but empty-headed banality of the lady-star (Barbara Hershey), and a screenplay that at times suggests that talkies were a big mistake, Rush has created a nerve-tingling celluloid magic show. Rush is a master of the infinite details of the surface, the colored smokes of movie-making, the actual play of images on the acetate. The wholly superficial brilliance...
