This time, Edward Asner (Lou Grant) achieves the seemingly impossible by overplaying the loudmouth junkyard magnate Harry Brock, who is eight parts tyrant to one part teddy bear. Madeline Kahn (Oh Madeline) gets laughs as his fed-up mistress who sets out to acquire couth and literacy, but cute faces and cunning timing do not add up to a believable person. As the crusading journalist who sets out to trap Brock and woo away his woman, Daniel Hugh Kelly (Hardcastle and McCormick) seems lobotomized. Only Franklin Cover (The Jeffersons), as a sozzled, shopworn and sardonic Washington fixer, evokes a credible...
Pepa's posh apartment is like the stateroom in A Night at the Opera. Strange people just keep piling in. In the course of a long day, Pepa runs into her lover's ex-wife, his new mistress, his son and the lad's fiancee. Plus a couple of doped-up cops and a Jehovah's Witness concierge.

"Pedro is going to become a major director," says Orion Pictures' Mike Medavoy, "either in Hollywood...

She went to jail rather than testify against him. When she got out of jail, many alleged that friends of Barry had paid her to be quiet...

He painted hair, especially the thick curly tresses of Whistler's Irish mistress Jo Heffernan, as though he were running his fingers through...
...hard to imagine more odious citizens than some of those portrayed in Blind Faith. The villain of Fatal Vision had a perverse stature and a demonic intelligence that are totally lacking in McGinniss's Robert Marshall. His fabrications and the entreaties recorded on love cassettes to his mistress suggest a ludicrous absence of self-awareness. Marshall's low animal cunning hits bottom when he exploits his sons' conflict between filial loyalty and the truth about their mother's death. McGinniss makes the Marshall boys' loss of innocence the emotional center of an otherwise lurid and coldhearted book...
