... and film is as close as we'd dare get to an amusement park! ;^)Seriously Rich, you can "use" film for whatever you want, but I tend to enjoy most cinema with the rare exception of that which bores me to sleep.
What else do you want to know?

Follow Ups:
Just kidding! I recommend you watch Spielburg's directorial debut,
the TV movie, "Duel" (1971?) with Dennis Weaver. Scripted by
Richard Matheson, based on his own short story, which BTW, was inspired
by a real-life personal experience of Matheson! This film milked
the suspense for all it was worth! Finely crafted. - AH
Speaking of "Duel" or perhaps by way of an mischievous segue, I recommend Ridley Scott's "The Duelists" made just prior to his highly successful "Alien." This highly crafted period drama is a fascinating study of obsessive/compulsive behavior. Note: I was tempted to say "highwayman rage" but since it involves to Napoleonic soldiers that would be a stretch! ;^)AuPh
