Oh, that's amazing!
Me too! My first saw movie was King Kong, I was 7 years old. When I was 8 years old, I saw Jaws in theater with parents. It was very scary experience, but I was engrossed about sharks.

The Tollbooth scene from The Godfather. :eek:
Favorite Movie Scenes -- 1970s - Mike Hanson - 08-28-2004
When John Belushi, in toga and wreath, stops on the stairway of Delta House to listen to a hippie sing a song to three women gathered around him.
Troubadour:
"I gave my love a cherry that had no stone
I gave my love a chicken that had no bone
I gave my love a song, that had no end
I ga..."
Belushi grabs the guitar and smashes it to pieces against the wall and the stair railing, stops, and shrugs his shoulders.
Bluto:
"Sorry."

That was Stephen Bishop, BTW. His "Save it for a Rainy Day" is still a favorite song of mine.

He did the theme song to the movie too.
I really like his songs "It Might Be You (The theme from Tootsie)" (even though he did not right it himself) and "On And On".
Talented guy. Nice voice.

I was going to say that! "They got Sonny on the Causeway." Such a fabulous movie.

It wasn't a great flick, but I'll never forget the final scene from THE SAILOR WHO FELL FROM GRACE WITH THE SEA, where Kris Kristofferson's falls into a drugged sleep...

Yeah, Bishop wrote some beauties. For some reason, I put him in the same mental file as Rupert Holmes. And no matter what you think of "Escape (the Pina Colada Song)"--I love it, myself--"Him" is one of the best songs about infidelity ever written. "On the table by the window/a pack of cigarettes/not my brand, you understand/sometimes the girl forgets." I think any lyricist would be proud to have written those lines. This one, for sure.

Scott Miller Wrote:"See if you can guess what I am now?" I have a bet riding on this, was it a banana or mashed potatoes that Belushi ate before posing that question.
In the movie it was a powdered doughnut or some type of powdered pastry, but I don't know what was used for the effect unless it was the same thing?

The Outlaw Josey Wales...
"You a bounty hunter?"
"Man's gotta do somethin' for a livin' these days."
"Dyin' ain't much of a livin', boy."
"Are you gonna draw those pistols or whistle Dixie?"
