story The best version was Howard Hawks His Girl Friday with Grant and Rosalind Russell more recent version was Tbe Front Page with Walter Matthau and Jack Lemon Switching Chan nels Is certainly not going to make anyone forget His Girl Friday Try as they might the dynamic duo of Kathleen Turner and Burt Reynolds are no match for Russell and Grant Tbe plot concerns a television reportera cho rwom an Christie Guloran Kathleen Turner who goes on vacation to Quebec and meets and falls In love with Blaine Bingham Christopher Reeve businessman She returns to Chicago to quit her Job but boss and exhusband Sully Burt Reynolds tricks her Into stay ing for one last interview Of course tbe last Interview turns into a king story and Christie cant quite make Rout of Chicago There Is a subplot In tbe film the story Christie cant let go Ike baa been convicted of murdering an undercover cop and Is destined for the electric chair Never mind that because of this cop dealing drugs Ikes son died Never that Ike didnt know he was a policeman Never that be was a corrupt policeman Dees situation has become an election Issue and tbe legendary corruption of Chicago politics Is very evident In this case Gubernatorial candidate Ridnltz the villains are Will fry Youll have to see the movie Kathleen Turner is very good as the confused and Christie Turner manages to seem tough and tender and very very sexy She has a lot of fun fighting with Reynolds And shes pretty good in the clinches with Reeve Christopher Reeve la well cast as Blaine Bingham the quintessential yuppie in love He lives in Manhattan drinks rler streaks his hair and shaves constantly He looks forward to mar rying Christie because It will seem like laving an extra appendage like another arm or leg You know bo was too good to be true Reeve la a big man Id forgotten how solid be is and his transformation Into a wunpering child in a glass elevator Is quite delightful Burt Reynolds has tbe thankless job or stepping into a role much bet ter filled by Grant and Walter Matthau He doesnt overplay tbe newsman and exhusband instead he underplays It to such an extent as to be hardly noticeable This is a strangely lacklustre per formance Is Burt Just incapable of acting any more or Is be by Cary Grant Whatever the cause Reynolds is barely adequate Ned Beatty Is fine as the manic and corrupt and Henry Gibson is tbe unfortunate Switching Channels is not a great film but it Is not a terrible one pacing Is uneven although tbe but hour moves well The satire Is cer tainly too broad and director Ted Kotcneff could have used a lighter hand But Turner fans will enjoy performance Too bad Reynolds slept through his role The Credit Valley Conservation Authority will be sponsoring the 12th Annual Maple Syrup Festival
