CLAY PIGEON-1971-Low budget Al Adamson
like crime drama about a former 'Nam vet Joe Ryan (Tom Stern) turned
drug taking slacker hippie used by a devious police detective Redford
(Telly Savalas) to catch a grouchy drug dealer (Robert Vaughn who's
nutty performance and crazy wardrobe make this mess worth watching!).
He's assisted by henchman Simon (Ivan Dixon) who shoots Marlene Clark
(who appears topless) in the head. Redford's equally grouchy police
captain is played by John Marley. Burgess Meredith is an old hippie
like junk dealer and Peter Lawford appears in one scene.
Producer/writer/director Stern who's not much of an actor seems to be
saying: cops are bad and drugs are good. He was in other movies and
TV shows but this was his only directorial effort.
Thanks for reading!
