The above picture is from the movie in the title. I like switching the picture from day to day. Kinda lends the blog to diversity, eh?
I hated removing the picture of Jimmy Stewart from the top of G.P. Because it sums up my situation with a quickness. An allegory, if you will.
Poor old Jimmy is hanging from the rooftops of San Fran. A police friend has already died attempting to rescue Mr. Stewart. Hence, Jimmy develops vertigo. Hence, the name of the "Hitchcockian" thriller.
Not much to say about 20 million miles other than I DID see it as a kid at the "Paramount Theatre." It DID star William Hopper as the leading man. William WAS the son of Hedda Hopper and WAS PAul Drake in "Perry Mason." And Ray Harryhausen DEVISED the special effects.
I LOVE these old b/w sci-fi movies from the 50's. There's just something unique about them.
20 million miles to getting a job? v.c.
P.S. Hoots, so what if yer the party pooper. Apologies to Arnold. Wasn't the line from "Kindergarten Cop?" Which is actually a pretty entertaining movie at that.
