I could probably fill up the entire page with a movie post. There are so many memories:
- as a youngster at the drive-in with my parents to see "Creature of the Black Lagoon". I probably saw 10 minutes of it.
- The Central Theater in Pearl River, NY - every Elvis movie that came out. Then my favorite "The Blob" with Steve McQueen and ever B grade horror movies of the late 50's early 60's.
- Teen years: - again at the Central Theater: "West Side Story" I wasn't a musical fan (like SB), but this one was cool.
- Any movie that you could put your arm around your girlfriend and then sneak a kiss.
- first date with my now wife of 36 years - "A Man and A Woman", how appropos.
- "The Endless Summer" - as a Jersey shore surfer, this was the epitome of life.
- "The Graduate" - went with my girlfriend (now wife) to Manhattan. Somewhere around 59th and 3rd Ave. Became a Simon and Garfunkel and Dustin Hoffman fan after that movie.
- "Night of the Living Dead" - went to drive-in for a night of "kissing". Wound up mesmerized by the zombies, never kissed.
- "Easy Rider" - again in Manhattan. Blew me away.
- "Jaws" - wouldn't go in the ocean (freaky for a surfer).
- "The Godfather" say no more.
- "Gone with the Wind". Saw it in the late 60's. Had to buy advance tickets. Didn't really impress me.
