The Crazy World of Julius Vrooder (1974)


Twentieth Century-Fox Film
Directed by Arthur Hiller
My rating: 3 stars out of 4

Timothy Bottoms and Barbara Seagull (Hershey) fall in love in the psychiatric ward. Actually, for a patient Bottoms has remarkable freedom, and lives in a hole out in the woods by the freeway. Barbara eventually joins him. Some good moments as Bottoms and other patients deal with their Vietnam demons. A subplot involves the phone and electric companies tracking down Bottoms for stealing utilities in his home away from home.
