Title: A Surprise
Review: I was flipping through the channels late at night, and I stumbled upon this film. I was prepared to toss it aside as a late night "B" flick- but I was immediately swept into the story line. I was so engrossed, I hardly noticed the length of the film, and was disappointed when the credits began to roll. The sheer artistry of the movie is enough to grip even the most non-musical person. Fosse's choreography is intense and beautiful every step of the way, and it is riveting. It is easy to get wrapped up in the story, and you find yourself unsure of whether you want Joe Gideon to live or die. Roy Scheider plays Gideon brilliantly, and it is almost a shock to see him fit so well into the roll. This film is a must-see, and I will not hesistate to add it to my collection...and I don't even LIKE musicals!!
