| An existentialist portrait of a weary, professionally-alienated, journalist (Jack Nicholson circa. 1975) who adopts a dead man's identity, though unbeknownst to him the dead man, while a good likeness in face, is actually an arms dealer in support of a North African political coup. Look for hardly any dialogue, no monologues (especailly quotables), actions not words,an awesome visual representation of North Africa (stark) and other 70s-era European cities, and the best ever final 7 minute scene which took something like 15 days to shoot. |
