The Big Bounce

She's beautiful. She's Carefree. She's trouble.

"Did you ever kill anybody?" she asks when she learns he did a hitch in Vietnam. "Was it fun?"

He is hot-headed drifter Jack Ryan. She is a thrill-seeking party girl Nancy Barker. Together, they're like gasoline and a match in this volatile tale based on a novel by Elmore Leonard (Get Shorty) and brought to the screen again in 2003 with Owen Wilson, Sara Foster and Morgan Freeman. Here, Ryan O'Neil makes his feature-film debut as Jack, a hard-luck GI smitten with Nancy (Leigh Taylor-Young)... and never stopping to think where her seductive spree of petty-crime kicks might end. The thrills she calls "bounces' may lead to a notoriously big bounce. For Jack that may mean a very big fall.
