Review of Off the Wall

Off the Wall (1977)
10/10
Excellent little film
2 May 2007
I saw this movie in my film school days and still remember it as one of the best films I saw that decade (70s)....and I saw many many very good films. I have hoped to see it again, but it never reappeared, not even on video. The Cinema Verite style of the film's plot - where the post 60s hippie subject of a documentary, hijacks the camera as he robs turns this film into something very special. This is one of several films I saw I my film school days that I saw once, when it made its rep house circuit, and then disappeared forever....that I wish would be resurrected on video or DVD. The other films are "The Night of the Counting of the Years" and "Rubber Gun" (which was the other film I saw on the double bill with Off the Wall).
