This strange little-known film directed by Carroll Baker's then-husband Jack Garfein stays with you, even with some pseudo-depressive situations popping up every other scene. Baker, wildly underrated in her long career, is right on the mark as usual. Ralph Meeker is outstanding as the brooding "patch-man" with the dingy, cool apartment in New York.
Fortunately, little films like this were produced in the 60's and 70's in America. We'll never see that again. If you read a description of the subject matter of this film, don't be turned off. If you can find it, give it a chance. It's had a lingering effect on me since I was a kid and recommend it with an 8 out of 10. Bravo Carroll and Ralph!
