Saw Joey and Denny Laine and Christopher Cross with Todd and his team in good old Lake Charles LA a few years ago doing Revolver and a few other things. Everyone got their hit in, and would’ve done more except for the need to wrap it by 10p (casino curfew).

It’s my favorite Hackman film but besides that I totally love it. There’s a scene where someone talks about a bum sleeping on a bench that has been burned into my brain. It makes it impossible for me to see anyone down on their luck without a deep overwhelming visceral reaction. And, I love the movies from that period anyway, like Three Days of the Condor. Smart cinema back then.


Most of today I’ve had Red Red Robin popping in and out of my brain…

Really want to see that film. Gene's death may just spur me on to get it done.
