Laurence Olivier is supposed to be one of the best actors ever but in this he comes across as amateurish and hammy. He seems uncomfortable as the old pervert lusting after his grand daughter played by Kathleen Beller.
Robert Duvall is good as he always is, he stands apart from all the other male actors including the over rated Mr Olivier. Tommy Lee Jones seems totally miscast. He looks especially uncomfortable in the love scenes.
Kathleen Beller is very good at portraying innocent girls and is one of the few believable actors in this film.
So if you are expecting a good thriller or drama from this movie you will probably be disappointed. It just falls short on too many levels.
