#Goldengirl (1979) - 6/10
Competent; uninvolving.

1️⃣ Cynical sports agent #JamesCoburn is contacted by neo-Nazi #CurdJürgens, who has engineered his adopted-daughter #SusanAnton to be the perfect athlete. Nosy reporter #RobertCulp starts asking awkward questions.

2️⃣ Edited-down cinema version of a 4-hour TV mini-series. The cuts are really obvious in the second half, when there are narrative jumps and story points that are inadequately explained.
