Love this movie. Did see it last night for the umpteenth time.
Also saw On The Beach when it was first released. Yeah, I'm old! So what!  |
Interesting...and speaking of Capote, how about his In Cold Blood 1967 with Bobby Blake...read the book and saw the movie in the theater...both chilling, really spooked my wife...
