After seeing this movie I was not the same person I used to be, yup this movie definitely put some impact on you really you can not resist its influence. One of the best work of Sam Peckinpah this movie deals with the true humanitarian phenomena, human nature for sexual orientation and needs and the most human seduction and temptation. This movie thrills you from the start to the end and the most magnificent aspect of the movie is its ambiguity and confusing nature of climax .Its truly nail biting and mind teasing movie .Dustin Hoffman portrayal of cowardice stricken husband was the most disturbing character ever played by any actor and the character of his stubborn, childish wife Amy was also performed outstandingly well by Susan George.

The most prolific part of this movie is its climax and its so confusing that even I cant make my mind clear (whether Amy reveals completely about her rape and does Hoffman leaves her at the end) In the end this movie deals with human psyche at its level best and its must seen movie at least for Sam Peckinpah fans
