Based on the date I am going to guess this ending was inspired by LOOKING FOR MR. GOODBAR – which does a similarly nasty last minute misogynist sucker punch fake-out after two odd hours of women’s lib swinging. Were male filmmakers really threatened by the entrance of women’s lib, Billie Jean King, Joan Collins, and Erica Jong’s “zipless f*ck” they needed a retaliation? If so, good lord. I remember being around 13 and seeing the last half of GOODBAR on cable thinking I was finally getting to see ANNIE HALL. I seriously could have used PTSD therapy afterwards – but how do you explain all that as a kid? I’ve always wanted to (and still do) sucker punch Richard Brooks for revenge ever afterwards, And I would never see this movie intentionally. I’ve cried my Native American by the side of the road pollution tear once too often.
