Never had seen it! Waited for Blu-ray. It was mahvelously good. The movie, not especially the transfer.

But several times the characters said, like, "like", like in the current usage associated with Valley Girls.

The date was 1971. I can cite no earlier instance of that horrid formulation. Can anyone say whether it was this film that incited the like craze?

Was it used in the Burgess novel as well?
