My favourite Donald Sutherland film. Demolition derby footage from opening sequence 02:45-04:10. No film characters are directly involved in this footage, apart from some cabin shots of Donald driving with these as a backdrop, so this
CougarTim wrote I think we've seen some of this footage before in other movies

may well be true, so have not created pages apart from the Dodge Power breakdown truck. Comments/IDs as supplied before page clean-up.

:king: It's a great film, very funny, chaotic, and well recommended so deserved a good attempt.

Thanks to everyone who helped (particularly with my technical problems).

Planes for impdb:

Consolidated PBY Catalina - http://www.answers.com/topic/consolidated-pby-catalina . The gang's attempts to get a derelict one flying again are a main part of the storyline - lots of footage inside and out with these just a selection (titles include the timing). A plane may have been harmed during the making of this film.

I love the Catalina. It's such an ungainly looking beast.

About archived comments: I think that the ratio is still not exactly right. But I come a little late...

It does - have posted the youtube link to the main theme above. The CD is unobtainable now without paying huge amounts, so explore other routes .... ;)

1st comment above for opening demolition derby sequence, CougarTim wrote "I think we've seen some of this footage before in other movies" - see main page comment pictures from ep1.21 of Rockford Files - looks like same track, but another event/meeting as car numbers don't obviously match.

Pontiac Ambulance and Studebaker turn up again five months later in Steel Arena.

Then it's about time it got a nice HD upgrade in proper aspect ratio with correct time stamps. :D

I saw this movie too long ago to remember anything except that Peter Boyle was hilarious.

:king: This I think was my first full attempt at posting a film back in the day when the world was younger, and there were lots of hiccups .... Disappointed that all the obituaries I've read of Donald, none mentioned this film, so proper upgrade is a fitting tribute.

The green baby convertible is Fiat 850 Sport Spider.
