Alfred Hitchcock's final film is a comedy-thriller starring Barbara Harris as a phony psychic/con artist and Bruce Dern as her taxi driver/private investigator boyfriend. While trying to find a missing heir in California (for a handsome reward) the two cross paths with a pair of serial kidnappers (Karen Black and William Devane). The film is entertaining and clever enough, but comes across as a bit flimsy compared to Hitchcock's earlier works. Special kudos to the excellent cast and John Williams' delightful score.
