Beautifully dark in both image and theme. Fonda and Sutherland are both amazingly natural and vulnerable. Gordon Willis' cinematography is breathtaking.
Klute looks great but as a thriller and as a story its pretty weak. Maybe I've seen too many others like it to realize this is the great uncle (if not granddaddy) of them all. Sutherland's performance is subdued and low-key and Jane Fonda's performance is definitely the highlight...( read more)
another donald sutherland disaster. he seemed to star in some very atmospheric flicks throughout his career but there's not one i've seen that had alot more than just atmosphere. klute is another example of this. was it supposed to be an insight into a call girls life rather than...( read more)
Some of the best cinematography ever - I love the look of this film. Maybe Jane's finest turn. As a suspense thriller however, it's just OK.
Interesting character driven thriller featuring Jane Fonda's insecure call girl verballing jousting with Donald Sutherland's unusually sensitive detective investigating a missing person. A little short on action, but clever, insightful and edgy.
Donald Sutherland is adorable and Jane Fonda is damaged in this detective story that's also an unlikely love story. Unsentimental and intriguing.
I will NOT see a Movie that has this Commie, Traitor, BITCH in it.
They don't have a LOW enough rating for her.
She can rot in the Hanoi Hilton, for what she did to Our troops during Vietnam.
BURN BITCH, BURN
