Review of Charley Varrick (1973) by Richard C — 13 Oct 2009
One of the best Cops and Robbers movie ever made. Don Siegel showed Clint Eastwood how to direct and Siegel is an unappreciated genius. The closest modern director is Michael Mann and Siegel is better.
The story of Charley Varrick out-thinking the mob, the cops, and his fellow thieves is a great story. I have never seen Matthau better and his cat and mouse with Joe Don Baker is high stakes suspense.
Great flick.
