Thoughts: This was an entertaining movie and it was fitting that nearly every scene had some sex in it. Warren Beatty who, to me, is just a Jimmy Caan look-a-like, played his role well. The supporting actors and actresses all performed at a high level.
This film was packed full of political references since it takes place on the eve of the 1968 Election. With all of the women he has in this film it did get a little confusing, but the writer and director duo do a great job of tying the lose ends and clearing up confusion.
Hal Ashby (also known for Harold and Maude) directs this movie and we can see many similarities from tghe cinematography to the shot selection.
