Review of The Last Detail (1973) by Kyle B — 11 Aug 2015
Nicholson and Otis Young play a couple of US Navy guys assigned to bring Randy Quaid to prison for trying to steal $40. Nicholson decides that Quaid is too young to throw away 8 years of his life for little reason, so he convinces Young that they should try to make Quaid's trip memorable.
This is the kind of shambling character-driven film that they really knew how to make in the early 70s. It's brilliant, Nicholson in particular who has never turned in a better performance than this.
