This movie is a classic. The combination of Chandler's writing and Garner's approach to the character make this a must see for any fan. Garner plays a slightly harder version of the Rockford detective he will later portray and pulls it off flawlessly. As an added bonus for the male audience, check out Rita Moreno's strip dance in the final scene. HOT!!! Also appearing in a great supporting role, Carroll O'Connor as the street tough lieutenant.
