The minimal energy of this typically mid 70s paranoia fest is fueled by the rabid anti press and, to a lesser extent, anti police views of its author, Heinrich Boll. Frankly, I find this attitude almost as boring as the glorification of the media in its opposite number, "All The Pres. Men," made at around the same time. Give it a C plus, mostly for Angela Winkler, whose beauty shines through even this dross.
