Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Uriah43 "Angela de Vries" (Yvette Mimieux) is a beautiful assassin who has just fulfilled a 3-hit contract and wants to retire. However, the organization she works for insists on one more assignment and since she doesn't appear to have many options she reluctantly agrees. Her new target is a union leader by the name of "Jeffrey Baine" and he just happens to be well-guarded. So this project presents itself as both risky and dangerous. Not only that, but she is also instructed that the hit must look like an accident which further increases the difficulty. Anyway, although this is a "made-for-television" movie it boasts a good storyline and a decent supporting cast. But the most important ingredient is Yvette Mimieux who looks absolutely gorgeous and performs rather nicely as well. So, if a person is interested in a fairly good crime-drama movie then this is one film worth consideration. All things considered then, I rate it as slightly above average.

blanche-2 Very entertaining film from the '70s, produced by Aaron Spelling and written by Yvette Mimieux, who stars in it, looks gorgeous (it is, after all, Aaron Spelling), and surrounds herself with men, particularly Dack Rambo.Mimieux plays a woman in a man's job - she's a hit woman. Though very successful knocking people off, she gets tired of it and, in love with Rambo, wants to retire from the business and live with him in Mexico. Her costars, besides Rambo, are Clu Gulager, Joseph Campanella, Keenan Wynn - basically all men.There's one very fun scene at the airport when Mimieux, attempting to disguise herself, offers a woman (Mitzi Hoag) outrageous money for her coat. I'd have handed it over too.Obviously a very brainy woman in real life, Mimieux does this cold, impersonal kind of role very well, and she's a real knockout in this (as usual). The film contains a very neat twist as well. Highly recommended.

Hoohawnaynay Apparently Yvette is as smart as she is beautiful. She wrote this "Movie of the Week" about a female contract killer. Actually quite entertaining, has cameos by a lot of talented people including Keenan Wynn, Joseph Campenella. Yvette kills 'em with class but when she wants to quit the business the heat's on. Yvette should have been given her own action TV series. Unfortunately most of the women kicking butt in the 70's were black (Pam Grier, Tamara Dobson, Teresa Graves) the only other movie I can remember where a white woman does this is possibly Connie Stevens in "Scorchy". I guess I just like to see women beating up men PERIOD! Catch this if you can, I think it was on video in the 80's it should be on DVD as many of these 70's TV movies were lots of fun.

Poseidon-3 Yvette got out her yellow legal pad and #2 pencil and scripted herself a juicy part in this Aaron Spelling-produced TV flick. She plays an attractive blonde, shanghai-ed into killing people for money. She wrote herself into virtually every scene and put herself into an area usually reserved for men....especially at this time of 1974. This film pre-dates "Charlie's Angels", but has a similar sort of angle. Mimieux goes "undercover" in designer duds and works over her targets with charm and sex appeal (she even struts around at length in a skimpy bikini...revealing a very fit figure.) The film is simple and trite at times, but still modestly entertaining. Joseph Campenella is given the (thankfully!) rare chance to engage in a sex scene, Keenan Wynn has just a cameo and Clu Gulager is sporting a few too many shades in his hair color....strange. The best part is hot-to-trot Dack Rambo in his PRIME. He slinks in in jeans that look like they couldn't contain one more skin cell, gets caressed from behind while his jeans are half open (revealing dischordantly cute and chaste little white briefs) and just basically looks edible in a role that would normally have been "the girlfriend part". His yummy face and thick, beautiful hair threaten to steal the film from Ms. Mimieux, but since she wrote it, he isn't around all that long.
