Thanks to wysteria for her copy of this film!
Keith plays womanizing roughneck Matt, who suddenly reappears in the life of old pal Harley (played by David Keith).
Matt and Harley did everything together growing up, including sharing their first sexual experiences. But Harley has become a solidly middle-class architect, married to small-business owner named Rita.
Wonderful Wendie Malick also stars in this movie as Matt's ex-wife Diane, and mother of his daughter, Cassie.
Even though Matt's been gone about a decade, he and Harley soon get up to their old tricks, much to the despair of their family members, especially Rita, with her loudly-ticking biological clock.
One night, after an encounter in which Matt is violated, a secret that Harley has tried to keep buried away in the recesses of his mind resurfaces. As the two old friends carry out an ill-conceived plan to avenge Matt, including tying someone to the proverbial railroad tracks, revelations cause Harley to turn on Matt. Well, without dropping any more broad hints, you can guess that this movie ends in tragedy.
Here is quote from writer wysteria, from one of her posts below:
"...I found this film to be a metaphoric symphony ...
A seductive, painfully sad, lost and lonely death of some sort. I can't really express it well. I thought this would be easy to write... it's not!..."
wysteria has provided a more comprehensive summary, located in the threads at the bottom of this page, as well as a copy of the film! She has also icluded the lyrics to "Lonesome Wolf," written and performed by the one and only Keith Carradine. (Thanks, wysteria, your writing really made me want to see this film--dexgal! I was happy I finally got to!)
Keith Carradine with the director (and writer!) Dirk Benedict*
*I know these pages are about Keith Carradine, but DIRK BENEDICT was in a very cool movie with Strother Martin--Dirk gets turned into a snake--saw it when I was a kid and it gave me nightmares for years--and he was Starbuck on the original Battlestar Galactica...yey--AND he was on the A-Team with George Peppard (another sexy 'older' man who has sadly passed away)! Thanks for indulging my trip down (sorta vague) memory lane!"--dexgal

Gentle wiki readers, this was actually a pretty daring role for KC at the
time...let's see, rape, murder AND very
enthusiastic wrestling...not
for the faint-hearted Keith Carradine fan...!

....I'm extemely happy that I FINALLY got to see it! I do feel that Keith Carradine did an outstanding job with a VERY unsympathetic character. The character of Matt was so flawed, at such an early age, that there was very little material left that could've been redeemed. Unfortunately, Matt and Rita ("Fox", Harley's wife) were really the only two characters that were well-developed. Maybe something happened during the editing phase of making the film, but it seemed like there were huge gaps in the exposition; I would've liked to have just a little bit more about Harley (and his boss at the architectural firm was kind weird...?!) Everything seemed to just be uneven...
