I'm really surprised to see that this is getting a DVD release. It's an mediocre film with a dubious central performance that was perhaps groundbreaking in its day, but hasn't aged well at all. And it doesn't help that Season Hubley was 25/26 when she starred in this film and she looks over 20, ie. she looks old enough to be making her own decisions. A younger actress would have been more effective. That's what makes Jodie Foster's performance as Easy in Taxi Driver so effective (disturbing).
Good news for George C. Scott and Schrader fans, of course.
