Night Moves (1975)

Alongside the brilliant, The Long Goodbye (reviewed elsewhere in this podcast) one of the two lost classics and twin pillars of neo-noir. Master-director, Arthur Penn( Bonnie and Clyde), helms Gene Hackman in a highly unusual, cerebral, existential gum-shoe tail, where the characters live on shifting sands, the protagonist has only a limited idea of what's going on and is the unknowing creator of his own story. Very early turns for James Woods and (given she's nude) and uncomfortably young, Melanie Griffiths.
