Episode 74 Part 2 - The Big Fix - The Wrap Up
Manage episode 373466506 series 3178872
Hi film friends, today we’re doin a showcase of 1978’s the Big Fix, the last film in director Jeremy Kagen’s trilogy about 60’s and 70’s protest movement issues. Katherine 1975 deals with radicals turning to armed struggle, Heroes 1977 deals with broken soldiers back from Vietnam, and today we gots the Big fix which gives us a detective story about a person trying to survive and thrive with his ideals in tact. It’s much more than that, and I think that we’ll talk all about it.
Richard Dreyfuss plays Moses Wine, great, and Susan Anspach plays Lila, also great. But what’s super great is F Murray Abraham as Abbie Hoffman, but here he’s called Howard Eppis, and Steal this book is called, Rip it off. Annnnnd, OMG Mandy Patinkin plays his stoned pool man.
One more character in the movie that I’ll mention is the city of Los Angeles. 70’s L.A. is constantly on display as they drive all the heck over it tryin to figure shit out.
Thanks friends, please subscribe, and write a review if ya can. Also tell your film friends. We claim to be very open to feedback on our Instagram and Facebook pages, but that’s because we haven’t gotten any really horrid ones yet. 70’s movies are definitely about long conversations, and we’d love to keep the convo going so we’d love to hear, from you. So far.
