Classic 70's comedy.Sadly that also means quite dated.Thus 1 star off.Younger viewers will find the pace slower than todays comedies,older folks will appreciate the nuance that entails.Small complaint,we don't get any Richard Pryor till the second half of the film but well worth the wait.Its really a vehicle for Gene Wilder but Pryor rules when he's on screen none the less.Also a sexy spin for one of my favorites actress's, Jill Clayburgh and a nice group of supporting actors including as bad guys,Patrick McGoohan,Ray Walston and Richard Kiel and a host of other recognizable supporting roles.Released in 1976 and running 114 minutes,the plot is humorous and a tribute to long distance rail travel that was beginning its dying time to the really nothingness of today.If you like love at first sight that evolves to desperate love but in a humorous way,than you'll love this film.Trailer URL follows the picture and a IMDB summary below.
On a long-distance train trip, a man finds romance but also finds himself in danger of being killed, or at least pushed off the train.
