Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Wow, what a metaphor for the JFK assassination! Grassy knoll, picket fence, grainy image of man in bushes, disappearing corpse (evidence). And this was a '67 release! A ground breaker for conspiracy movies. Hemmings actually did a superb job as a "hip" photographer and there was less skin than I remembered. 8^) Jane Birkin hadn't had her braces yet and was adorned with blonde hair while Sarah Miles and Vanessa Redgrave looked pretty hot. Interestingly, all the Yardbirds had blue eyes with the exception of maybe the drummer, McCarty, who wasn't shown.
Interesting flashback. There is no telling how many young guys got the photograpy bug aftering see this . . . including me and a few buddies.

Fuhgedaboutit!
