You ever read Harlan Ellison's...Great read Lee. You ever read Harlan Ellison's Watching? Think you'd dig. It's a compilation of late 70s / early 80s film crit by Ellison. He talks about about there being a savagery in the Spielberg films of this era - citing in particular Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and the Spielberg produced Gremlins. Very interesting, especially in light of his more recent mawkish leanings.Chris Readyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05440715594600700346noreply@blogger.com
