Ah, Bullitt. NINE plus minutes. Back when the movie makers thought the movie goers had an attention span in measurable units.

You guys will never guess my Easter present from TravelGuy. Not racing but a copy of the ORIGINAL and never equaled "Thomas Crown Affair." Can't wait to see it again.

HB Steve. You were really sumpin.

I really liked "Tom Horn". The philosophical acceptance of fate is poignant given McQueen's state at the time.

Speaking of the Great Escape, I got this email today purporting to be about the original tunnels built by the GI's who actually made the escape.

Thanks TGal. That's cool. It appeals to my history geekness. I believe the movie is on tonight right before the Thomas Crown Affair if you can rip yourself from the Homestead race.
