About this product

Product Information

Martin Ritt directed NUTS, a courtroom thriller which is an example of the director working clearly at the top of his form; he has always been an actor's director and here gets tremendous performances from his entire cast. Taken from a stage play that was changed extensively for the big screen, NUTS is set mostly in a courtroom, where the apparently mentally ill Claudia Draper (Barbra Streisand), a prostitute who has killed one of her johns, is standing trial for manslaughter. However, as the trial progresses and Claudia strains to prove her sanity, startling new evidence is revealed about her parents--who are trying to have her committed, her psychiatrist, and the public defender assigned to her. Streisand produced and starred in this film, and it is evident from her volatile performance how much she wanted to play Claudia; her intensity gives the film's courtroom scenes their push. Contributing to the intensity, Ritt bathes the courtroom in luminescent light during Streisand's most intense scenes, highlighting Claudia's urgency and lending an eerie feeling to the usually antiseptic courtroom. Fueled by uniformly excellent performances, Ritt's film eclipses the scope of the usual courtroom drama as it works toward a surprising and revealing conclusion.

  • Streisand Triumph in Acting & Direction w/ Great Cast

    In my opinion, Barbara Streisand, were she from the UK, would have been offered the title of Dame by the Queen for her remarkable contributions to society through her films and singing performances. Streisand has made unforgettable "moments" over and over again in nearly all of her performances and then turned her keen senses towards film direction. "Nuts" is a story that no reviewer's mentioned here yet about America's dirty gigantic well kept hidden secret: father's having sex with their own daughters; incest. Streisand plays the role of a woman who has lived with incest after effects all of her adult life. Her character shows how incest has impacted her. Now that her sanity is being questioned who would be there to testify against her but the great (recently deceased) Karl Malden, ...

  • Streisand & Dreyfus Contend With Sexualities in Law

    NUTS is a courtroom and psych ward drama about Claudia Draper (Barbra Streisand, who expertly plays that character of) a prostitute accused of killing one of her "customers." Streisand's brilliant performance with dialogues and monologues as she stands trial to determine her sanity before being tried for manslaughter, is represented by a fascinating lawyer (Richard Dreyfus). Their silent interactions drew me into the thickening plot. During the psychiatric and court room examinations (dialogues and monologues) Draper (Streisand) reveals new evidence about her family; a family who is bent upon having her involuntarily committed in a psychiatric institution. I cannot understand why Streisand didn't earn an Oscar for her phenomenally focused and pointed characterization of a woman so ...

  • Streisand, Dreyfus, Malden, Stapleton Masterpeice

    Barbra Streisand is understandably the focus of this film. She's the survivor who's being considered nuts and determined to prove otherwise. Richard Dreyfus plays the attorney who's going to have to put up with a difficult client in order to achieve their mutual goal. Karl Malden and Maureen Stapleton play key roles as Streisand's character's parents. Streisand doen't open her golden throat to sing a note in this drama. She's all leading actress in this show, and how. I'll go out on a limb stating it's one of Streisand's top ten dramatic performances. The superior supporting cast delivers the goods too.

  • Nuts, with Barbra Streisand

    Although I am not a Streisand fan, I feel this is one of the most spectacular of her performances. The way she and Richard Dreyfus plan off against each other, her secretiveness, determination, and sheer personality as Claudia are nothing short of fantastic. I have seen many of her other pictures, usually centered around her fantastic voice, but this movie truly brings out what a superb actress she really is. I would have liked to see this one nominated for an academy award for both the principal actors.
