Review of Saint Jack

Saint Jack (1979)
9/10
Rewarding adult movie
2 June 2020
This movie reminds you of just how great the late 60s/early 70s was in American film and how infrequently you see a movie this rewarding nowadays. That it's now almost completely forgotten shows how little we now value strong acting in a powerful yet subtle story. Let's hope it's appearance in Amazon Prim will expand its fans. The "but almost nothing happens!" critics demonstrates how little patience film goers now have. Anecdotally, the film is also a reminder of just how much Singapore has changed in the past 50 years.
