Move

1970

Upper West Side

Stuart Rosenberg

Comedy 

What’s it all about: Elliot Gould can’t keep his khakis on for anyone but his wife

First Encounter: the steamroller gag is a somewhat disturbing childhood memory; Candotti’s first viewing

Death By: neuroses

Relics: back hair, avocado green, fixing a pantyhose run with nail polish

Heartthrob: Elliott Gould

LoFi Magic: hidden faces, gut-punching fantasy sequence, steam-rolled cardboard cutout

Makes me want to: spend more time in Central Park

Candotti take:  “I liked seeing his hairy body. This is what connected me to the movie.”

Worth a watch/rewatch: No
