Bullitt
Suspect


An Innocent Man


Krull

The Deep, Breaking Away, & Mother Jugs & Speed are on my to watch list. The Friends Of Eddie Coyle is on my wish list as I've been hunting down all the Robert Mitchum films I can find. Most of the rest I haven't heard of although a few look interesting after checking them out on IMDB. May add a few others to my wish list.  ;)

This is what I was hoping for when I started these polls. I'm glad to see it's working.  :thumbup:

I have only seen two, Bullitt and The Deep. Therefore I didn't vote.

I am so sure we should be glad about this, as it will cost money :devil:

It's been very many years since I last saw it but I remember liking it very much, I actually think it better than Bullit.  Peter O'Toole's performance is pretty good, I think you'd like it.
