Thanks DV. I knew it was someone I knew of, but couldn't remember who. I've seen Bruce Greenwood in several movies and in a tv show a few years back.
I did see The Poseidon Adventure and it was very good for it's time.
Back in the 70's there were a string of disaster movies including: Earthquake, Jaws, Airport and more I'm not thinking of. Earthquake also had good special effects for it's time;
Jaws made everyone think twice about swimming in the ocean and Airport, as you can imagine put the fear of flying in us. And Earthquake, especially now, with living in CA, makes me realize just how devasting the "big" one could be.
Don't know why or how these "Trends" in movies begin, but at the time they were very popular.
