Robert Towne (1934–2024)

Perfect cast, who all give great performances--especially Grant and Worden--make this bittersweet semi-comedy compelling from start to finish. Great LA locations, cars, Beatty's Triumph motorcycle, etc. etc. make it a visual treat. Great dialogue. But it's the three women, Grant, Christie, and Hawn whose nuanced, always surprising, performances make this a real winner.

This must be the worst horror film ever made. The acting is appalling, the story is rubbish,the sound seems to be coming at you through a tin can. As for the monster,well,a man is wearing a shaggy rug with eyes made out of ping-pong balls and claws of knitting needles or something like. Overall a mix of Mister Blobby and Cooky Monster. In fact it is so bad that it is quite entertaining.

Oscar winning screenplay for the 1974 movie starring Jack Nicholson.
Would have benefited from an introduction. As it is I don't know if this is the first, final or shooting script. Judging by memory only, there are differences from the finished film.
Certainly recommended to any would-be screenwriters; or just fans of the film.
