NickF1011 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 That car chase was revolutionary. Don't see a lot of pioneering like that in cinema anymore, unfortunately. R.I.P. Peter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grbeck Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 RIP, Mr. Yates. He had a long and rich career. I never knew he directed Mother, Jugs and Speed. I remember going to see that one in the theater with my friends in the summer of 1976. It starred Bill Cosby and Raquel Welch, back when she really lived up to the second word in the movie's title...

I saw Mother, Jugs and Speed at a drive-in. It was perfect for that setting. In her defense, Racquel Welch is 70 years old now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That movie would have been perfect for the drive-in theater! Ms. Welch is at the point where it's obvious that she has had a little too much work done. She was stunning in her day, though. Then again, I don't look like I did in 1976 anymore, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking for myself, I consider that to be a blessing. I still can't believe I looked in a mirror before my H.S. yearbook photo and let them take it.
