A little gem from 1969. Has limitations in plot and production. For the ladies, Heston does some flexing and spends extra time with his shirt off. The writer, Messinger (long time TV writer), does a great job in several arguments between main character and his wife. The movie was attempting to be realistic and gritty, but the '60's was just not a time for moving cameras and action sequences. Charlton Heston is a real pro, and he elevates this movie that has a made-for-TV essence to it.
