Review of Inserts (1975) by Stephen E — 28 Dec 2012
"Inserts" is a curious little gem of 70s filmmaking that isn't likable or very good, but it is interesting enough to merit at least a single viewing. Richard Dreyfuss has a wacky, uneven performance as a director of pornographic films that spends his time half-drunk and in solitude.
The rest of the cast (which includes Veronica Cartwright, Stephen Davies, Bob Hoskins and Jessica Harper) is pretty uneven as well and their performances consist of either grand moments or weak moments, excluding Harper, whose performance is actually quite excellent.
As for the film itself, it doesn't quite (literally) go anywhere, but at the end, it doesn't feel like a total waste. It's a little eccentric, a little mediocre, a little stagy, but strangely interesting.
