I'm not trying to be a troll, but I think this film is really over rated.

Don't know how old you are, but as someone who lived thru this era, I concur with your opinion. However, at the time I thought this film was "fantastic." Now I cringe at its selfish values and unlikable characters.

I understand. It is dated. But in 1975 this film made a lot of statements about Hollywood, the business community, politics, sex and status.

For us old people, it was interesting at the time, because we didn't have the internet to educate us. Try to imagine that.

Lee Grant won an Oscar for her supporting role.
