I watched
The Hindenburg (1975) tonight via my Netflix box. I unfortunately don't know the actual history of it all -- a disaster that happened just 15 minutes from me in the '30s (haha! I wrote
30's first!) -- and while this seemed kinda plausible, I don't know. All I know is that I wasn't very impressed by the film itself, despite the fact it starred George C. Scott and Anne Bancroft.
BTW, as you ALL should know...
Earthquake (1974) was co-written by
Mario Puzo... and is the movie Marta was watching in Scarface
