In a complete departure from his usual shoot'm up characters. Clint Eastwood plays Dave Garver. A southern California disk jockey who winds up being stalked by a violent psychopathic woman (Evelyn) after a one night stand. While I never bought Clint Eastwood as a successful poetry reading disk-jockey character. The movie didn't actually show him working that much. Just enough to establish him as a semi-famous local radio personality. That a crazy female fan becomes obsessed over.
