"Joe" explodes on television, 1973

From the March 10, 1973 Philadelphia edition of TV Guide, KYW-TV Channel 3 preempted NBC's Saturday Night at the Movies for a local showing of the controversial 1970 film "Joe."

 

"John G. Avildsen directed this chilling, sometimes comic, study a factory worker (Peter Boyle) who hates liberals, hippies and social workers."

 

Future A-list actress and noted liberal Susan Sarandon played Melissa in this movie.
