If Bogart played the role of the P. I., it would have been a different movie, still very good. But Nicholson played it as a know-it-all who always knew what was going on until he found out differently. Then repeated the process. I have watched this film half a dozen times, and every time I am more impressed. Performances by Faye Dunaway, John Huston, Burt Young, the detectives, even Roman Polanski, were spot on. A brilliant film.
