Klute

Maybe it was the pan-and-scan video, but this movie looked crap to me. Badly framed shots, lots of darkness, no overview of the scene: all distracting enough to make me pay only marginal attention to the story.
In the film noir plot Jane Fonda is Bree, a call girl receiving anonymous threats, and Donald Sutherland is Klute, a private investigator who takes the case of a missing friend, falls in love with Bree and barely says ten words in the whole movie. The plot 'surprise' is revealed halfway into the movie, which must be a seventies way of being anti-establishment.
