Fantasy and reality blur

Walter Hill introduction

William Holden and Robert Duvall are uniformly good but a speech delivered by Ned Beatty and a scene with Beatrice Straight live long in the memory

The director also has a connection to the story as he spent time on Hydra- meeting Marianne there as a young man in 1968 and being influenced by her

long-held emotional traumas have terrifyingly physical embodiments and the girls will have to use all their individual talents if any are to survive

Dog Day Afternoon Blu-ray Asian Fantasy and reality blur'Dog Day Afternoon' Director: Sidney Lumet (1975) The extraordinary true story of a bank heist that turned into a media circus public event on a hot and sticky New York afternoon. Funny, poignant, tense and sometimes absurd but always rooted in a shared, flawed humanity. The characters may sometimes act in unexpected ways but they are always believable. Al Pacino, John Cazale and Chris Sarandon lead a uniformly excellent cast.
