Music budget seems small, as the one pop song is replayed endlessly; Michel Legrand's score seems syrupy. Unwisely filmed in Panavision by Donald M Morgan. Written by Gail Parent, from her own novel. Paramount.

Sheila Levine is Dead and Living in New York (1975 Sidney J Furie)
Somewhat slow character drama doesn't really live up to the title. Arriving from Harrisburg, Pennsylania, Jeannie Berlin moves into NYC flat with ditsy actress Rebecca Diana Smith - a well caught character, one of those flaky types with no money and always in a hurry - and pretty much immediately bumps into doctor Roy Scheider. This triangular relationship, search for work and wedding of her younger sister are pretty much it.
