...point and terribly unsuccessful past that point," concedes the full-time writer who has also dabbled in politics, prizefighting and performing. "Here I'm trying to make a professional, conventional film on its own terms." The movie boasts a $5 million budget and a cast that includes Ryan O'Neal as Madden, Isabella (Blue ; Velvet) Rossellini as his smoldering old flame and Newcomer Debra Sandlund as his estranged spouse.

...they deny their clients were negligent. The helicopter crash was unforeseeable, said Attorney James Neal, Landis' defense counsel. Neal, a former Watergate prosecutor, will try to fix the blame on Special Effects Technician James Camomile for detonating the explosion too close to the helicopter. Says Neal: "Mr. Camomile, holding the highest powder card issued by the state, violated the first principle of his profession. He failed to view where the helicopter was." Camomile was granted immunity when he testified before a grand jury...
