Looking for Mr. Goodbar 4K 1977

Yeah, it's an uneven movie. Almost all movies about the seventies are either very good or charming. Brooks' movie is the same way. The best thing in it is Diane Keaton, her charm, half-improvisational grimaces, plus all the time half-naked. About the degree of Keaton's talent gives an idea of this movie, and not 'Anne Hall' or 'The Godfather' - in Von Trier's she would shine at all, but Brooks shows her well. The beginning with the deaf children brought up by the heroines is made just to contrast with the night life and is seen as too straightforward, there is also some drag, and the movie is simple in terms of structure. The movie is not commercial at all, but as if it is not quite author's - a kind of adapted for the audience Cassavetes. Young Gere is quite funny, the memorable scene with ice cream and cockroaches, the powerfully staged murder at the end - this is also there. Not uninteresting, in any case.
