Very good choice. It was also Alfred Hitchc0ck's next-to-last film that he made.

John Candy, Peter Cook, Mickey Rooney, D1ck Emery, and a lot of effort do not, unfortunately, make for a good movie.
Plot was interesting, but the script was poor and the delivery was not good....

Also watched Goodbye Gemini. a very very obscure British film from the end of the swinging sixties. Martin Potter and Judy Geeson as twins who share everything.Unseen apparently for nearly forty years. A tale of love, incest and murder.

"Butterflies Are Free" (1972), starring Goldie Hawn, Edward Albert, Paul Michael Glaser, and Eileen Eckhart.
Hawn plays a carefree gal and aspiring actress from Southern California who moves to San Francisco, and moves next door with a blind man (Edward Albert) who has dreams of becoming a musician.
Eckhart won a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her performance in this movie, playing the Edward's domineering wealthy mother.
Very good performances by all. Also, there's a brief appearance by Mark Warren, as a clothing store employee, long before he played Officer Bobby Hill in the "Hill Street Blues" TV show.
Glaser is also in this movie, several years before he was in "Starsky & Hutch".
