Review of Straight Time (1978) by Alan H — 04 Sep 2007
Underated gem for the 70's that finally got a R1 dvd release. hoffman plays a thief who has just gotten out of prison and tried to make an honest go at a new life. but finds himself getting continually worked over by the system which drives him to go back to what he does best.
hoffman gives a stunning and subtle performance. along with rest of the great cast. pretty much forgive hoffman anything after this. amongst his best. definitely worth a look.
