In 1971, Clint Eastwood starred in this melodrama about a disc jockey’s overzealous female fan – but he took the leading role only in exchange for being allowed to direct the film as well. This was Eastwood’s first foray behind the camera… a side trip that turned out to be especially fulfilling. Meanwhile, this movie, in and of itself, is an early prototype for Fatal Attraction, and features Jessica Walter (much later, a scene-stealer in Arrested Development) as an obsessed, vengeful female.
