Just watched it again recently, I have a VHS Copy !!!

Not action packed, but a slick little crime thriller, not a very fancy movie, but the presence of Bronson makes this movie a must see for his dedicated fans.

Charles Bronson R.I.P

6) Main character staying in an hotel regularly (I gues I like this too)

7) Main character having diners outside regularly, sometimes he has a big lunch, so, he no longer needs a dinner for the night.

8) The low-fi high-tech devices (intercom, bugs, spy cameras).
9) It was made in 1976, the best year for films, music and style.
10) Jacqueline Bisset (who, not coincidentally, is a 10 herself).

Staying in a seedy hotel reminds me of Rockford living out of a trailer;

some of the best lines are found in that ubiqituous cafeteria where Charley meets the most curious characters of all !

"...taking care of the ole furnace...."

11 Jacqueline Bisset is so attractive and hot !
12 charles bronson is as cool as ever
13 the ending scene is great it makes your day whenever you watched it
14 the noir mystery atmosphere that I love in films and main character is called raymond '' raymond chandler ladies and gents ''
15 its a 70's film .. and I think the 70's and 80's are the best periods for movies
