                       THE MAN WHO WASN'T THERE
                    A film review by Mark R. Leeper

     This film has the distinction of being the only 3-D film of 1983 that
did not look like a cheap imitation of ROAD WARRIOR.  It is a flyweight
invisible man story starring Steve Gutenberg (who was the fifth lead in
DINER).  This film would have had to include a treatise on nuclear
proliferation to elevate it to the level of "fluff."  At the height of
network TV's attempts to create comic-book heroes back around 1976, this
film would have been too weak and silly for network TV, and that's pretty
silly when you consider what made it to TV in that period.  It has a plot
aimed at a seven-year-old mind, and nudity to make sure that it is
appropriate to no audiences.  Don't bother.
