Loved it!

I tried so hard to find this somewhere to stream but finally found where I could buy it. The dvd isn't in great condition not very crisp and hard to see in a few places, too dark but I loved the story and was glad I got to see it. Loved Perry king in it! He can play jerks and lovable guys equally well. He is so so handsome. I wonder if they were trying to imply Nancy was gay? It was never really explained. I personally wish it had ended differently for two of the characters. I'm a romantic I guess. Anyway this would have been nice to watch when it was new and in good condition but I don't remember it back in the 70's. It still was well worth buying it. I just don't enjoy the stuff that's on tv nowadays and the marvel comic movies don't appeal to me. I stream the older things and buy when I can't find them. I recommend this even if you find a dvd that's not in great condition I'd buy it. I'm rambling cause I have to type a certain number of characters.
