Cast

Production

The film was shot in Chicago during the winter of 1975. [1] The film was originally meant to feature hardcore sex, although it was eventually edited in order to receive an R rating. The shooting of these scenes is chronicled in the 1976 documentary A Labor of Love. [2]

Reception

Roger Ebert awarded the film one and a half stars and wrote, ""The Last Affair" is an appallingly bad movie - so completely bankrupt in ideas, in characterization, in simple common sense that it's little wonder its makers bought a theater to get it shown." [3]

Gene Siskel of the Chicago Tribune awarded the film one star, calling it "the first film I've seen that is all supporting scenes and no main story." [4]
