A wonderful film.

Ted Post was such an under-rated director - taught Clint Eastwood a lot about directorial/camera technique on the sets of Rawhide in the early 60s.

Did similarly excellent jobs on Hang 'Em High, Go Tell The Spartans, The Harrad Experiment and one of Chuck Norris's few good films, Good Guys Wear Black.

The Baby really is a bizarre curio, both generally and in Post's canon. But what a fantastic thing for Hollywood to come out with!

Tempted to put it on now, actually!
