Manhattan mother of two Tina Balser (Carrie Snodgress) had way more than her fill of being regarded as just domestic and drudge by her supercilious, social-climbing lawyer spouse Jonathan (Richard Benjamin). As she seeks her own path, she finds rebellion-but not much better treatment-in an affair with successful albeit sadistic author George Prager (Frank Langella). Long-sought feminist dramedy co-stars Alley Mills, Alice Cooper; Sue Kaufman co-adapted her novel for the screen. 95 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack; English; Subtitles English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
An aging comedian tours the California desert, lost in a cycle of third-rate venues, novelty tourist attractions, and vain attempts to reach his estranged daughter. By day, he slogs through the barren landscape, inadvertently alienating every acquaintance. At night, he seeks solace in the animation of his onstage persona. Fueled by the promise of a lucrative Hollywood engagement and the possibility of rekindling a relationship with his daughter, he trudges through a series of increasingly surreal and volatile encounters.
