This week we had the unique displeasure of discussing a film that very few people have heard of, let alone watched. It features one of Liza Minnelli's most celebrated performances and ruminates on late-1960s gender politics, in the style of The Graduate (1967), but it's also guilty of romanticising stalking. Sam Meltzer joined me in breaking down the rapturous critical response that Minnelli's star turn received, in addition to questioning whether Wendell Burton was a real human being.
