The Big Fix (1978)
8/10
Smart movie that doesn't try to be.

In 1983, after I saw the disappointing 'The Big Chill', I thought back to 1978 when I saw 'The Big Fix', and thought how much better the latter expressed the feeling of lost idealism from the late 60s --10 years later. Dreyfuss plays a private investigator named Moses Wine---a great name. The mystery isn't all that great, but when Moses views old footage of the radical 60s, tears well up --- and I realized that the more successful and overly praised 'The Big Chill' didn't come close to the feeling of lost hope among people who lived the 60s. So see The Big Fix instead---if you can find it.
