"The Taking of Pelham One Two Three" - 1974 by #JosephSargent #WalterMatthau #RobertShaw #DavidShire
"We just thought we were doing another caper movie." Happy 100th Birthday to Giuseppe Sorgente, known as Joseph Sargent, the prolific journeyman whose 55-year career in film & television included directing the greatest heist thriller, and one of the best NYC movies, ever made.

Take a peek into what can horrify #BTTWNS writer & creator @PatrickHorvath! A lot goes into creating horror novels, see what Patrick is drawn to and maybe get a new read that even Samantha Strong would be scared of. #HorrorNovels #Horror #BTTWNS #BeneathTheTreesWhereNobodySees

Check out my interview with Harris jr from a few years ago: altaonline.com/culture/a38216… And the unedited audio version: pinnlandempire.com/2023/03/a-conv…
So Chameleon Street [1989] directed by Wendell B. Harris Jr. is in my opinion a highly astonishing and underrated and i strongly recommend it. This is an audacious and fun type of filmmaking i rarely encounter and that it's Wendell Jr's debut film which he stars in himself makes
