Naïve Old Fart 13,021 Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 "The Dresser" is quite, quite brilliant. "Eyewitness" (in the U.K., it was clled "The Janitor") is good. I'm going to go on record by saying that I like "Krull". It had a lot of very good ideas in it; it's too bad that the excecution was...less than perfect. Oh, yes; and Jacqueline Bisset in a wet t-shirt...
Maglorfin 219 Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 I'm not all that familiar with his work, but the car chase from Bullitt immediately comes to mind:Same here. Rest in piece!
Hitch 60 Posted January 11, 2011 Author Posted January 11, 2011 I have to put up KRULL simply for James Horner's fantastic musichttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0THw1AVBILM
