Last night and for the first time in 40 years, I watched Robert Benton's Still of the Night ('82). Which isn't very good. A cautious, understated Hitchcockian homage without much of a raison d'etre of its own. Awkward, under-written dialogue. It has a certain interesting tension at first, then it loses that. Not awful and sometimes almost "there", but never gripping.
