OK, I've given this a 10/10 out of 10, although it only deserves an 8, but I just have to push up the medium vote a little. This is not just another gangster movie. It features Sissy Spacek totally in the buff in a very plausible market for women, who are without protection, taken from orphan homes. Gene Hackman plays a villain, you don't easily forget. He's just like you imagine a sufficiently successful American to be. What else should he do with all his power, I just ask you? A socially very critical film, disguised as pulp - that's what it is and nothing less. Impressive.
