Williamson holds a mirror up to the soul...
Beyond the simple history and mild comedy that its twin bill offers Hoffman-Voight fans, American International Pictures deserves an additional salute from the industry. Eyes fixed on the rear-view mirror and hands planted in the cash register, AIP has devised a unique way to greet the '70s, ringing in the now by wringing...
