Directed by Henry Jaglom | 92 mins | 1976
Dennis Hopper, in the depths of his decade-long exile from Hollywood, channels his livewire, damaged intensity into the role of Jack Falen, a soldier returned from Vietnam and on a mission to restore the body of his friend to his hometown by way of the Amtrak. Jaglom’s provocatively fractured second feature marks one of cinema’s first reckonings with the psychological impacts of the war stateside.
