 | | The boy, on his own, encounters a repressed landlady (Julie Harris), falls in love with a beautiful, sexy, disturbed star of a discotheque (Elizabeth Hartman), avoiding a romantic relationship with a nice, wholesome library clerk (Karen Black). |
 | | The world paranoia, just touched upon in the Times Square scenes in "You're a Big Boy Now" and Bernard's misadventures, is also seminal to the Coppola oeuvre. |
 | | But the best parts of "Big Boy" entail the messy, naive lustiness of its young hero; and Coppola nicely captures his erotic adoration of Barbara Darling and his itch for experience. |
