When I was a kid, my mom and I were driving through our suburban neighborhood when we witnessed an escaped convict ripping a middle-aged woman out of her car in broad daylight. He was still wearing his orange jumpsuit.

Re-watched a couple months ago for the first time since the theatre, and I was surprised how much I really liked it. Certainly helped coming off of seeing The Friends of Eddie Coyle for the first time. :)

Much love going out to Bruce Campbell.
Here’s a terrific story about Sam Raimi trying to direct a difficult Gene Hackman on The Quick & The Dead set.
Campbell is such a wonderful raconteur.

Page 2: Dale asks where he is, and how to leave. The Arm says there is nowhere to go but home and laughs, then dances.

“In my third year of college, I was a little lost. I was failing at school. I felt isolated and alone. And then I found the company of people putting on plays. Storytellers. People I once thought were misfits and geeks turned out to be… MY people.”
