I saw this movie years ago for the first time and I recorded it on DVD. I really enjoy it. Richard Harris is a favorite of mine, I even like his singing. The supporting cast and the quality of the film is top shelf. I particularly enjoyed Roy Kinnear's part as the social director, a thankless job for sure, and he pulled it off so well. Shirley Knight as the lovely lady did a great job also. All in all a very enjoyable movie. If you ever get a chance to watch it, do yourself a favor and watch it.
