One of the best movies of all time, but then you needed to see it in the 1960's when it first came out.
That movie is what got me on two wheels forever... Joe A

Loved the DVD commentary, that final scene was shot from a helicopter, they were either going to get the scene or die trying, apparently. They were climbing at much more than the limits of the chopper, and the cameraman was hanging on for dear life.
Phil Spector was hired because he had the Rolls Royce and the bodyguard. Fantastic movie, the graveyard scene kind of causes angst, but great filmmaking, imho.

I think one had to grow up in that time period to really get the most from the movie.

I thought Jack still lives in that modest bungalow. I thought he's been living there for like 40 years.
