In this most imaginative and unpredictable adventure, Richard Harris and Justin Henry develop a friendship under the most unusual circumstances. Martin's Day, cleverly directed and highly entertaining, is full of delightful surprises. After he feels he is unjustly rejected for parole, inmate Martin Steckert (Harris) sets himself on fire and masterminds his escape from prison. After he has successfully escaped, he kidnaps a young boy (Henry) and returns to the lakeside hideaway of his own childhood. There he reveals himself to be a rather imaginative and impulsive fellow, singing and dancing one moment, smashing through a house in a police car the next. Lindsay Wagner plays a psychiatrist who explains some of the unique qualities Martin possesses, and James Coburn is the police lieutenant who makes it a personal quest to get Martin back to jail. This nutty, off beat adventure was filmed in the beautiful locale of Ontario, Canada. It's a fast-paced trip through the imagination with two totally different characters who ultimately find that they may have more in common with each other than they do with the rest of the world.
