Saw this film last week for the first time since the 80s -- truly great film -- Spielberg's best.

Very clever.
Never see the truck driver's face or find out why he chases Dennis Weaver. Imagine being lucky enough to see the film at cinema when it first came out. |
|
By:
I think it was his first>. Jaws on wheels,
 . Highly enjoyable. |

Marshall Sam McLoud would never have stood for that caper.

By:
Superb film, bet it was very good watching it in a cinema.
|
|
By:
Was TV movie first, then more footage was shot for the cinema version.

Dennis Weaver played the part of Chester in Gun Law 1955. He'd got a bad limp in that and had to get about on a crutch.
It must have healed up by the time he played the part in Dual 'cause his leg was okay in that. |

By:
Duel as well.

Yeah used the same style in Jaws, which is even better! of course Jaws 3 and 4 have tainted the original and should be burnt and never shown again.

Anybody else need a red PLYMOUYH VALIANT now, to get from A to B...?
|

By:
PLYMOUTH...
 ...or would ye rather have a dirty big pollutin' feckin' truck with a front like a human face? |
|
By:
Needs a re-spray,
|
|
By:
Yeah...wheeler dealers respray...in mucky brown...
 |

Not a patch on Ted 2 I'm afraid.

P.S. - horribly ashamed to admit to this, but I'm addicted to Wheeler Dealers for reasons I can't fathom.

Edd Chynna is leaving...he has left a farewell vid on youtube.
|
|
By:
Won't be the same without him. Always makes me laugh that Mike bangs on about how they turned an £800 or whatever profit but neglects to add that poor old Ed worked a minimum of 300 hours to knock the car into shoe.

By:
YUP - keeps poor Edd in the cupboard under the stairs on slave wages...

"Mike, put on the kettle while I strip out this engine that's been seized up since 1975..."

I was looking at a pre-owned car recently and to my horror I uttered (in true Mike Brewer-style) "it's a lovely straight motor".
|
|
By:
"Put yer hand here!"
|
|
By:
London car sales style, 'Proper car' 'All up together'.
|
|
By:
And actually it wasn't a lovely straight motor either. I traded in my Merc for a Range Rover Evoque and it's a pile of sh1te, I hate it.
|
|
By:
Sorry JM but the Evoque is a tarts car.

1975 SIMCA 1100

Started with a restoration of a Vauxhall Viva and ended up owning a.......FACEL VEGA...!!
|
|
By:
Sadly BTF you're correct on both counts, I don't know what I was thinking buying it. Looking to move it on already. Sigh.
|
|
By:
Morning JM, don't beat yourself up mate, If I could limit my mistakes to my poor/impulse car/other purchases, I'd be a happy chappie.
 Vel, 1975 Simca 1100,  Trabant,...... eat you heart out East Germans!!!! |
|
By:
The MOSKVITCH 412, predecessor of the Lada, known to spontaneously burst into flames...
At least U2 made the Trabant trendy for a while. |
|
By:
...FACEL VEGA...!!, never even heard of the car let alone seen one, was it like a canoe going around corners?? looks fantastic though.
|
|
By:
How many yards to the gallon. Vel.
|
|
By:
The greatest trick U2 pulled off was making silly fans think that buying a CD was a vote for bono heed. Rebel without a seat!.
|
|
By:
Boxingthefox - Picasso owned a FACEL VEGA...and AVA GARDNER.
|
|
By:
I don't mean Picasso owned Ava Gardner...
