Fuzz is a 1972 American action comedy film directed by Richard A. Colla, and stars Burt Reynolds, Yul Brynner, Raquel Welch, Tom Skeritt and Jack Weston. - The screenplay was written by Evan Hunter, based on the 1968 novel of the same name that was part of the "87th Precinct" series he wrote under the name Ed McBain. Dave Grusin composed the film's soundtrack score. - Unlike the series 87th Precinct, which is set in a fictional metropolis based on New York City, Fuzz is set and was shot on location in Boston, Massachusetts. Detectives Steve Carella (Reynolds), Meyer Meyer (Weston), Eileen McHenry (Welch) and Bert Kling (Skeritt) are part of the 87th Precinct's team, investigating a murder-extortion racket run by a mysterious deaf man (Brynner). While attempting to investigate and prevent the murders of several high-ranking city officials, they also must keep track of the perpetrators of a string of robberies. Further complicating matters is a rash of arson attacks on homeless men. 92 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono, audio commentary; theatrical trailers.
