Just watched 'The Making of' The Thin Blue Line

posted 12 years ago by oiltanker

I caught this on Current TV, interesting points........

1) Harris first met Morris after only getting out of prison (7 years in San Quentin) and thought that Adams had already been executed.

2) Harris threatened Morris after their first interview in a bar by saying "be very, very careful going home" 3 times before they parted company. That must have helped shape Morris' opinion as he drove home sweating bullets.

3) After being asked if he was the only person in the car when the cop got shot Harris nodded and smiled (the last interview was made on audio tape after the camera packed in).

4) Harris was supposed to meet Morris for the second time the morning he killed a guy in a hotel and couldn't because he was in custody, Morris realised it could have easily have been him.
