New York returns flag the pic as a solid hit despite some critics calling it sophomoric, with a $2.7 to 3.4 million budget and principal shooting in 32 days at Eugene Oregon. Major names include John Belushi Tim Matheson John Vernon Verna Bloom and Lewis Thomas Hulce though no big stars slowed the schedule.
