Watch: The Woman Chaser 1999 123movies, Full Movie Online – Set in 1950s Los Angeles, Richard Hudson (Warburton) is a shrewd car dealer who moves from San Francisco and sets up a used-car dealership. Tiring of this job, he turns the lot over to an assistant and starts writing his first movie, The Man Who Got Away. It turns out to be an uncommercial picture chronicling the story of a truck driver who goes berserk, runs over a little girl and dies fending off a platoon of police officers. In making his film, Richard enlists the help of his father-in-law, Leo (Paul Malevich), a washed-up former film director whose notable possession is a Rouault painting of a clown. Through Leo, Richard pitches his idea to the Man (Ernie Vincent), the chief executive of Mammoth Pictures who green-lights the project. Conflict inevitably arises when Richard’s obsession for making the movie his way clashes with the Man. Other kooky characters include Richard’s mother (Lynette Bennett), a former ballerina who lures her hirsute lug of a son into a comic pas de deux ; Richard’s sexually curious stepsister, Becky (Marilyn Rising), who seduces him, and his secretary, Laura (Emily Newman), whom he impregnates with a boorish indifference..
Plot: A 1950s used-car salesman (Patrick Warburton) wants to make a low-budget film about a trucker who accidentally runs down a child.

Take a second look…
If you saw The Woman Chaser at the NY Film Fest or Sundance, take a second look. I saw it at SXSW in Austin, Tx this last Sunday night and I loved it. You’ve probably seen the reviews from previous film fests, but the version that played in Austin is not what the reviewers in NY or at Sundance saw. It was outstanding! I have not seen any version but this one, but from other reviews I know what at least one of the cuts was (good decision, by the way). I happen to really like a good bad guy and Warburton made a GREAT bad guy. Just see it. You’ll understand. Oh, and if you’re reading this Joe, it was great to see you! And yeah, I’m waiting for the director’s cut DVD to come out…

“What’s more unusual than Santa Clause selling used cars in August?”
With a poll taking place on IMDb’s Classic Film board for the best titles of 1999,I started looking round for left-field movies to view.Reading a great post on IMDb’s Film Noir board,I found out that Patrick Warburton (known for his distinctive voice over work on Family Guy & the quirky Disney movie The Emperor’s New Groove) had actually starred in a 1999 Neo-Noir!,which led to me getting ready to meet the woman chaser.

The plot:

Being a master in all the tricks of the trade,used cars salesmen Richard Hudson decides to set up his own used car showroom.Making good cash with his smooth business skills,Hudson begins thinking about fulfilling his dream of making a film.Wanting to give all the attention to his debut film,Hudson passes the business over to the assistant manager.Pulling his washed up,ol’ faithful directing father-in-law Leo,Hudson gets his foot in the door at a studio,who with Leo’s help agree to fund Hudson’s “vision” Writing and directing the film himself,Hudson rigidly sticks to “his vision”,and soon finds himself trying to stop the studio from editing his vision to destruction.

View on the film:

Selling Hudson’s “vision” in pin-stripe B&W backed with a smooth Jazz and Blues soundtrack, (which has caused the original cut to be stuck in royalties issues for years)writer/director Robinson Devor gives the film a wonderfully peculiar Neo-Noir atmosphere, with gliding tracking shots in Hudson’s car setting off stylish close-ups held in left- field angles,which give Hudson’s adventures in the Hollywood “dream factory” a darkly comedic,acid-tongue Film Noir mood.Keeping his excellent adaptation rooted in Charles Willeford 50’s LA pulp novel, Devor wraps the movie in a deliciously jet-black comedic wit,with the rich narration revealing Hudson’s determination to be an “auteur” and destroy anyone that tries to stop his vision from being seen.

Whilst firing sharp one liners across the screen, Devor tightly threads an explosive,self-destructive Film Noir streak round Hudson,who holds onto to ridged beliefs which stop Hudson from seeing the “development hell” that he and his project is sinking into.Joined by a fantastic supporting cast with “lived in” faces that go from Ernie Vincent’s thunderous studio head to Marilyn Rising’s flirty stepsister Becky, Patrick Warburton gives a fabulously chiselled performance as Hudson, thanks to Warburton being able to deliver a dead-pan line with real-precision,whilst keeping Hudson’s Film Noir rage bubbling away,which spills over as Hudson’s nitrate dream vision is lit up.
