1h 37m
Directed by Francis Ford Coppola • 1966 • United States
Starring Elizabeth Hartman, Geraldine Page, Peter Kastner
Francis Ford Coppola’s oft-overlooked second feature is a zanily offbeat entry in the 1960s sex-comedy canon. Bernard Chanticleer (Peter Kastner), a naive nineteen-year-old virgin librarian, leaves behind his home and overprotective parents in Long Island and heads to New York City, where he quickly loses his heart to a go-go dancer (Elizabeth Hartman) and gets a crash course in life, love, and drugs. Updating 1930s-style screwball anarchy for the counterculture ’60s, Coppola directs with whirlwind brio, bolstered by a colorful supporting cast that includes Rip Torn, Karen Black, Julie Harris, and an Oscar-nominated Geraldine Page.
