Cinderella Liberty (1973 Mark Rydell)

Seriously well photographed film, in Panavision and De Luxe, by Vilmos Zsigmond. James Caan is nicely restrained, Marsha Mason as good as ever (Oscar nominated), Kirk Calloway good too as the kid (wasn't in much else - a couple of Kojak episodes). John Williams score (also nominated). Film really kicks in towards the end, has a lovely twist. Written by Darryl Ponicsan, based on his own novel (also wrote The Last Detail - a navy man, by all suggestion). Really good.

With Eli Wallach, Burt Young (still now going strong), Bruno Kirby, Dabney Coleman.
