Paper Moon
USA, 1973, 102 Minute Running Time

It is the early 1930s, and a small funeral service is underway at the gravesite of Essie May Loggins. In attendance are two female acquaintances and Addie (Tatum O’Neal), the 9-year-old daughter of the deceased. Arriving late for the service is Moses Pray (Ryan O’Neal), a suave-looking younger man. It becomes clear that Essie May was a somewhat “loose” woman, and that Moses was one of her lovers. One of the women at the funeral says she notices a resemblance between Moses and Addie, and wonders if Moses is not the girl’s father.
