shareYea.. tell me about it.
Scares the heak out of me.
If any of you find a good (or any) "Review" of this movie. Post it here OK?

Joss Wheadon! Sleeping in the parking lot for a year doesn't count as an Oscar win for "Toy Story!
here's a good review of "the domino principle":
the acting is fantastic (can you really go wrong with hackman, rooney, bergen and widmark?).
it's stylish, with kramer directing - especially with the pseudo-doc introduction/prologue.
they just don't make films like this anymore (another one of those hip 70's crime thrillers that succeeds precisely because they didn't have the cgi/special effects we have today).
is that a good enough review...

I just watched it and thought it was a big ole mess of a movie. It's obviously based on a novel and that's part of the problem. It's rare that you can simply take a novel and have the writer of the novel adapt it by simply typing it up in screenplay format. The dialogue is part of the problem. What would work on the page just seems contrived here.
Incidentally, I think the intended victim is obvious but I won't spell it out for those who haven't sat through the movie. I'll just give you one hint - think The Flintstones and San Cemente and you'll get a clue.
BTW = what was with that obvious wig on Candace Berman? The scene in the back of the car, the dern thing slips off her head a little to the side!

I get San Clemente, but I'm drawing a blank on a connection to, The Flintstones ?!?
lol! share
The Flintstone's version of Nixon lived at San Cemente
shareOoooooooh,
Uncle Zeke Flintstone from Sandstone Cemente. haha!
At least ONE other User remembers! Yay! I bow down to you oh wise oubrioke for all your Flintstone wisdom! You're right, it was Sandstone Cemente, not Sn Cemente. My bad!
And Uncle Zeke! I really forgot about him, they see his portrait there right? And isn't this where they meet the Flintstone version of the Hatfields and McCoys and their dirty little blood feud or am I somehow melding two Flintstone things into one half-remembered Meme?

Yeah, I think you're right! Unfortunately, I am operating strictly from memory. It has to have been at least 25 years since I've seen that Flinstones episode. Sheesh, I'm old!

You were indeed correct on each point!
I just caught that Flintstones episode: "Bedrock Hillbillies" and you were exactly right. Uncle Zeke's estate was indeed called San Cemente, not Sandstone Cemente. My memory is worse than I thought is was.
Additionally, you were also correct that it was about an ongoing multi-generational shooting feud between the Hatrocks and the Flintstones. Very corny, but pretty funny nonetheless!
