Harry Stoner (Jack Lemmon) isn’t having a good day.
He’s burned out on his seemingly successful life. He’s in
hock up to his eyeballs and is an example of Paul Simon’s
observation about the “quiet desperation” of a midlife crisis.
Lemmon picked up a deserved Academy Award for his portrayal
of Harry with its echoes of other Lemmon characters throughout
the latter part of his life.
Video & Audio:
“Save the Tiger” looks particularly good. Paramount
has done a nice, crisp and clean transfer here. While the
film occasionally looks soft with noticeably grain in some
sequences that’s the result of age, the film stock and lighting
conditions for the film. The 2.0 audio has nice clarity
and presence.
