havent seen it in a while. interesting that it was a box office failure despite praise from a number of prominent reviewers including pauline kael.
Studio executives analyzed the reviews for months, concluding that the reason for the film's failure was the misleading advertising campaign in which it had been promoted as a "detective story". They spent $40,000 on a new release campaign, which included a poster by Mad magazine artist Jack Davis.
