Not long ago I was talking to a writer about a movie they wanted to write. The idea was a good one, with a nice solid Friday night at the movies hook. But in the course of pitching, this writer went on to say “I see it as an allegory for school shootings.”
Very good insight. I grew up in the 1970's in North Hollywood. Not exactly the city but Hollywood was close enough and was just as you described the "city." I suppose the movies of the time did innoculate me when I entered those different places. Our creature comforts today are much better for sure but I still long to see a good movie today or even enjoy Walt Disney's Disneyland of the 70's. I'm curious, what does the MF stand for? Keep up the good work.
I also grew up in the 70s.
You had me at “Pollack, Scorcese, Pakula, Jewison, Lumet, Hill, Siegel, Friedkin, Winner.”
