Simply wonderful

esse filme, Pulp fiction, Alta fidelidade, sei lá, são exemplos de filmes que funcionam somente pelas relações entre pessoas que se estabelecem. deve ser algo bem dificíl de fazer num tempo tão curto quanto é a metragem de um longa. enfim, aplaudo bastante, porque fazia muito tempo que eu não era tocado assim pelo cinema (na verdade eu revi titanic esses dias, mas falando de ineditismo etc)

There's an overwhelmingly refreshing simplicity to Paper Moon. There are no extraneous plot complications, unnecessary characters, or wordy sentimentality to overshadow what the movie is about: the perfect chemistry between two hilarious characters. Words can't describe how good the two O'neals are in this movie. The 1930s setting is very well done and adds to the film's innocent charm and timeless feel. A highly entertaining movie I could watch a thousand times.

Very evocative of its Depression-era setting, but not gloomy or disheartening. In fact, it's just the opposite: a fun buddy/road film with a strong comedic pull. Father and daughter O'Neal have fantastic chemistry, and Tatum's performance in particular is one of the better child acts in history.

Stellar performances from a stellar cast, led by father and daughter O'Neals. Both do a great job, but Tatum really steals the show and highly impresses with a portrayal that was certainly worthy of the Oscar that she won.

Fun romp. The O'Neals have undeniable chemistry and Tatum is remarkable. Seldomly do child actors deliver performances on par with hers in Bogdanovich's film. Be sure to also check out his masterpiece, 'The Last Picture Show'.

To say that Tatum's performance as Addie is full of wit and wisdom beyond her years is not a bold statement. But would it have worked without the presence of her father? As a duo they compliment each other perfectly, masking each others deficiencies (she's a bit too precocious, he's a little too dopey) with comic chemistry as good as any pair before them. That they do this while remaining believable in the face of very real dangers from depression era middle America is nothing short of amazing.

An amazing film that stand's as one of the greatest films of the 70's and one of my all-time favourite films.Ryan and Tatum O'Neal imbue this film with so much grace and charm.Tatum O'Neal's performance is phenomenal for one so young and worthy of the Oscar she won.

No one else mentioned Chaplin yet?

Very fine road movie. I enjoyed all the adventures and misadventures that these two get themselves into. Ryan and Tatum have a charming chemistry together and the film is wittier than one would expect. The black and white photography is beautiful, evoking the era but with a modern sensibility. I kind of view this film as a bridge between The Kid and Leon, or at least it shares the same basic motif. While it's not a new favorite of mine or anything, it's the best I've seen from Bogdanovich.

Prime example of a great character driven film. Both leads grow on you as the film progresses and the unspoken insinuations are just as engaging as the banter.

I'm in love with this movie.

Funny and touching. It's so nice to find a film that can be both.
