Squirt R @Squirt_Reynolds Aug 14, 2026 This Joe guy has the right idea See more Matheus F @matheusf_neto Sep 28, 2025 If any young actor wants to to follow the filmography of a great artist, take a look at Peter Boyle's work.

This is an example of how a mind can become criminal, from repeated influences that brainwash an individual. It's scary how people who would otherwise live relatively normal lives can allow thoughts to overpower them into taking matters into their own hands through violence. Although the movie is dated by its "hippy" reference, it is nevertheless topical, as the drug epidemic and extremism continue to take their toll.

See more dave s @RT68722908 Nov 13, 2021 Simply put, there are really only a couple of reasons to spend any time watching Joe. First and foremost, Peter Boyle gives an absolutely incendiary performance as Joe, a racist right-winger who feeds off of the hatred he feels for anyone who doesn't think or look like him. Second reason: the film features the debut of Susan Sarandon in the role of a young New York hippie whose father kills her boyfriend, setting off a chain of events that will lead to a horrific conclusion. Beyond that, there's not much to see here as the film's noble attempts at social commentary are undermined by some horrifically wooden acting, poorly written dialogue (stunning that the screenplay was nominated for an Oscar) and laughable visual effects during the murder of Sarandon's character's boyfriend.
