    Gritty, hard core, very realistic. A period piece, yet very well resonates still today in 2024. Great acting, I especially liked Karen Black and George Segal in their roles. Karen Black is a timely beauty.

    This movie is one hell of a warning to stay away from drugs and the drug culture and all the evil that comes with it. So called friends that turn on you, rat poison drugs and crooked cops. Stay away from that shit and live to see another day. Be smart and keep safe out there. It's a dangerous world.

    At age 18, I just escaped frpom Eastern Europe in the summer of 1971. Joined the U.S. Army's LSC in West Germany right away. In Kaiserslautern, they had an entire American city there on the base, with a huge movie theater. That is where I saw this movie, along with others. No English subtitles, of course, so I understood maybe half of what was being said, if that much. There was no admittance charge to the theater, however you did have to pay something for popcorn, candies, soft drinks. Oh, those were the days, my friends...

    Segal è stato un attore completo, sapendo passare dal ruolo drammatico a quello brillante. Intelligente, versatile, passionale. Ovviamente: sottovalutato a tutt'oggi. A Hollywood (Walk of Fame), per esempio, solo a quattro anni antecedenti la sua morte, gli è stata dedicata una stella per la categoria "Televisione"... ! Lo stesso dicasi per la sublime Karen Black.

    In my first classes in college (1973) we were using a book called' Born to Win' . I don't remember if it was an English pr Psych class. But this movie came before that and I think the message was Born to Lose (wink) . No doubt the war on drugs at that time was a no-win situation. probably always a no-win situation.

    Interesting film for Segal, displays his depth as an actor. I didn't like how it ended. What happened to Karen Black's character? Every one was so young. De Nero, Karen, all of a sudden I was back in the 70's. Which fot me was a depressing time, going to school with all the Vietnam vets who had been medics. We used to joke about people like JJ, any time we had to do blood work on a junkie, we just asked them where ther was a good vein. Crazy!

    • @624radicalham
      @624radicalham 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      The point is that, although left up to the imagination, the viewer knows that Segal will prefer the "hot shot" poisoned heroin, even if it kills him, to his new life away from the city. Perfect ending

    I always thought that there was something a bit scary about Karen Blacks eyes. Maybe because they appear to be slightly crossed? She reminds me of another actress, Jennifer Carpenter, who starred in "The Exorcism of Emily Rose". She too has scary eyes. The first time I saw her in "Emily Rose", she scared the poo out of me. 🌹

    Karen Black always amazing. And 'Born To Win' such a killer soundtrack. This soundtrack/tracks are "lost" apparently...(?) Shame if they are. William S Fischer arranged/produced some great instrumentals, but 'Born To Win' as a track needs to be remastered with a full version! Atlantic records might know where the master tapes are, if they still exist at all...

    _Way_ Beyond the multiple characterizations below of merely a "gritty" film, I found this extremely well-portrayed little ditty to be a rather disturbing peek into the raw, tragic Reality of hard core junkies 👉 The resulting *La La Landers* Thinking eking-out a fairly meager existence in search of their next fix, while sadly *_lost_* within the complexities of The Urban Jungle..... A Really *_E X C E L L E N T_* performance by Segal, young De Niro in a career-setting role as a street-wise New Yorker, Karen Black indelibly as CLASSIC Karen Black (!!!), and even an unusual, though descriptive bit-part by Paula Prentiss that also carried some equally justifiable "emphasis"!!👌😵‍💫 = *Thanks Cult Cinema* for this truly worthwhile and very engaging upload, which also had The Perfect Ending!!! 😎

    A great film. I wish it had ended differently, but that's the way life is for dope addicts . Great acting all around. Always loved Karen, a real beauty and so sexy. De Niro is the greatest, even back then. He's a natural actor. Only in the movie for a couple of short scenes, but from the first instant he appears in a scene, he looks like he's always been the character . No warming up or anything. First word out of his mouth and you get the feeling he's already been talking for 10 minutes ; he's already in the middle of it. Love New York when it was the place to be . I was 23 and I lived there at the time . That New York is gone, it's become plastic, just a shadow of what it was and a dream of what it could be . I'd never go back . Gonna be watching this again soon. The New York movies of the 70s were the best. Two good examples : "Mean Streets" and "Taxi Driver". It's a long list.

      I will agree with you but - I think the script STINKS . It's like they had EVERYTHING you need for a GREAT movie and they half baked it! The RAW GRITTY NYC of 1970 is SUBLIME and DAZZLING and DIRTY! I love when he walks into the barely there PIZZA parlour that leads to that HORROR MOVIE basement full of addicts! I remember when Pizza Parlors had those Grape and Orange drink machines that swished the fluid around! LOL. And nobody buys a CUP of Coke with ice anymore-- it's all self serve bottles or cans now. Also the outside movie theaters!! So wonderful and exciting !

    It's the first time I've seen this movie and as I would expect, the acting was terrific. What I can't figure out though, is what the point of the movie was. It was like starting a book at page 100 and stop reading 50 pages from the end. Not sure what to make of it. I mean what, living an addict's sucks? dealing with crooked cops sucks? What was the story here? There's no real beginning to this movie and no end either. Acting superb, story terrible!

      @LannieLord 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I will agree with you . But I will add : the NYC locations with REAL interiors (apartments , restaurants , the sparse pizza parlour that lead to the deathly basement, , the EXTERIOR movie marques w/ "Sudden Terror" - a VERY VERY minor cheap horror movie - but MY GOD : LOOK at the fanfare and display !!) ..FANTASTIC to see NYC in the Raw circa 1970 when this was filmed ! And oh "Lauren Bacall in Applause" - a friggin MUSICAL . She can sing ? LOL. Script = One Star . Locations = 10 Stars !
