This film by Eagle Pennell is an extremely great example of realism in film. Whether he meant to or not, this film almost seems like a documentary because of the simple scenes and the down to earth content and dialogue. I think that the friendship between Lloyd and Frank is perfect and they seem to compliment each other just right. My favorite scene of the film is in the beginning when Frank and Paulette are at the drive-in movie theater. Their son is with them and it just shows how something so simple can show the love of a young family. Although Frank cheats on his wife through out the film, I go back to this scene and it is just so funny how Frank and Paulette react to one another. All of the characters in the film have really great chemistry and it is what truly sells the believability of this movie.
score 8/10
