Love the Tour of LA 1970


I found the movie all right but I absolutely loved looking at the LA that I remember first going to in the early 70s. The look and feel of the images was at that pivotal point where the "old world" of Southern California of the 40s, 50s, and early 60s was disappearing and the "new world" of the 70s and beyond was coming into view. I often found myself wanting to slip into the screen and go back to that time. Even if the movie didn't quite measure up story-wise the movie is a good treasure trove of scenes of a long gone LA and Mohave Desert.

You definitely made me want to see the film now. Old movies, especially on blu-ray, are often very interesting snapshots of the past.
