Deneuve leads us to seventies noir, shot in shadows by Joseph Biroc. Burt Reynolds was not the best actor but holds it together as detective in love with hooker, investigating death of young girl (who it turns out was no saint). Ben Johnson and Eileen Brennan, reteamed from Last Picture Show, are her parents, Paul Winfield the fellow cop. With Eddie Albert, Ernest Borgnine, Catherine Bach.
Rather successful. Written by Steve (Save the Tiger) Shagan.
