David and Lisa Review

"David and Lisa" Overview

**1/2 stars

Rating: NR
1962


Cast and Crew

Director : Frank Perry
Producer : Paul M. Heller
Screenwiter : Eleanor Perry
Starring : Keir Dullea,Janet Margolin,Howard Da Silva

There's not a lot of Lisa in David and Lisa, which has Keir Dullea as a troubled teen (though he was 26 years old at the time) living in a mental hospital to help with his bizarre psychosis which causes him to freak out if someone touches him. The film follows his therapy sessions and crazy Dali-esque dreams (involving clocks and beheadings), but barely touches on his romance with a far nuttier girl. It's not a bad time, but it's talky and more than a little pedantic. And Dullea looks like the oldest teen on earth.
