Cameron Mitchell and Pamela Ferdin scenes

This movie has problems but the acting between Cameron Mitchell and Pamela Ferdin in their scenes is just off the charts good. The script has a decent story and the cops are useless (in that it's-1978-we-can-get-away-with-this manner) but I was captivated when these two were on screen together. I remember Ferdin as a much younger actor who probably didn't do much acting after this film. Hope all is well with her.
