If you are refering to that idiot Leonard Maltin and his damning review of this film...I completely agree!
If not...then I can't say much more.
Debra Winger is strong, motivated, and passionate.

The vicious circle of depression makes me depressed!

I like it too but critics tore this movie to pieces when it came out. Critic Roger Ebert said the sequence where they hunt down and kill the black man was too extreme for a motion picture. Ummmmmmm--isn't that sort of the point? They have to show the audience how sick and twisted these supremicists are. And I agree--Winger was just great:)

I kinda felt the character she was playing was a bit weak. I'm surprised an FBI agent would even be able to do their job being so emotionally vulnerable.

Do ya love him Loretta?
Ah Ma I love im awful.
Oh God, you poor thing.

I never understood how/why they didn't see the powerful performances/plot in this film either! I still think it's an excellent movie and, since it's rarely, if ever screened, I'm glad I found it on DVD a few years ago. It's a shame it doesn't get the credit it deserves.
