The Chase This Texas-hating film makes one oil-rich hamlet into the Peyton Place of Evil. Jailbird Robert Redford is on his way home, and the racist, gun-toting, hate-mongering citizens go berserk. Marlon Brando gets the waffles beaten out of him (again!), Jane Fonda shows she can act, and ace director Arthur Penn pours twenty name actors into the overboiled stew. Outrageous, over-the-top and irresistable. In beautiful Panavison proportions from Columbia TriStar.   2/22/04 Posted by DVD Savant at February 21, 2004 09:56 PM
