The movie is just right. It's a hallmark of the New Hollywood era. It's an interesting character study with relatable themes of non-conformity and defying authority. Paul Newman's performance is one of his best. Yeah, it came out at the time when the new generation was starting to make all these "Us vs Them" movies where the ones we root for end up getting shot to death. Such as Bonnie and Clyde, Easy Rider etc. Probably a reflection of the real life assassinations of heros that everyone in America admired.
