PodBill Just what I expected

Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

sprasa03 My name is Neon Jones. I have been haunted by this movie for years. I'm interested in obtaining a copy of this movie. I'll take this movie in DVD or VHS. If someone taped it off their TV thats fine. Must have this movie. Can't rest till I get it. Also looking for a neon phone. I'm running out of things to say. I do nothing but eat, sleep and think of this movie the Neon Ceiling constanly. My house is full of Neon now. Now I'm obsessed with finishing this Neon story. Buying the Neon fan today. And also found the Neon phone. Still in love with Neon. Ever so gratefully yours. Recemtly I got a pug. And it's now named Neon pug. And my pug is love with Neon as well. In love with Neon. Gratefully yours,

nelson1018 I saw the movie in 1971, I suppose, on TV and never forgot it. I would very much like to have a copy of it. Can one be purchased from any source anyone knows?Never play cards with a man named pops and never eat in a café called mom's or words to that effect, so you see, even though I am now 71, I remember part of the movie quite well after 30+ years. I remember the driving scene when the girl was learning and the incredible private show that Gig Young's character had arranged for himself and which he did not really care to share with others. It was an unlikely love story that had to end as it did.

stevecliff I agree that this movie and other 70s TV movies (ABC Movies of the Week like Tribes, Duel, That Certain Summer, etc.) have been unjustly neglected both in reruns and movie guidebooks. However, I think perhaps the person who wrote the other comment is thinking of another movie. The movie I remember was certainly NOT a thriller. It was a very human story about the developing relationship among the three main characters. I admit that I was only thirteen years old at the time and could be wrong about this, but I was particularly fond of this movie since I had read the script before the movie was aired and remember looking forward to seeing how the final film would come out. I hope some of these great films will make a comeback. Thank you IMDb for remembering them!

Randy H. Farb This movie has many darkly lit scenes despite the title. Herb Edelman truly proves he can act in this tour-de-force drama of a bored housewife seeking adventure. Lee Grant is excellent also, but the stand-out is Denise Nickerson, who showed quite an acting range.
