by George GRIFFIN

“Homer Bendix runs a small town laundromat and that's ok. But two businessmen (one resembling Nixon) encroach on his world and he is infected with the idea of progress. This leads down a seemingly rosy path to the big city, a trip filled with dangerous and hard-edged consequences.” – Aronow and Griffin, Film shown at New York’s Film Forum, 1972.
