Review of WUSA (1970) by Allen R — 01 Apr 2011

Deeply dark and cynical counterculture effort that often too on-the-nose for my tastes, but features an OUTSTANDING performance from Paul Newman, an actor who's such a great movie star that you often overlook what a truly gifted actor he was.

He's surrounded by a stellar supporting casting standout performances from Anthony Perkins, Pat Hingle, and Cloris Leachman, but the highlight is Mrs. Newman - Joanne Woodward who proves once again that she was one of the most overlooked and under-appreciated actresses of her era.
