“a brilliant gem of American psychological realism”
—Time Out New York
In this key work of the American New Wave, disaffected scion of the upper-crust Robert Eroica DuPea (Nicholson) hides out from respectability on a California oil rig while two-timing his waitress girlfriend (Black, in her only Oscar-nominated performance). When a family illness calls him back home, DuPea embarks on one of the great road trips of 70s cinema—including a now-iconic stop at a particularly stringent diner.
