The Parallax View (1974)

There are many memorable scenes in TPV, but as a whole, the film is lacking. Too many unanswered questions; major plot points are glossed over; about 25 minutes too short. Still worth seeing for the cinematography and mood, just don't go in expecting All The President's Men.
