I think Weaver did a great job in "Duel", Speilberg's first film, originally done for TV and then expanded.
Follow Ups:
Yep, I remember watching Dual when it first premiered on TV ('71?) and thought it was great. Dennis was excellent as the everyman thrown into a nightmare, esp. the scene when he's climbing up the long grade and his car is overheating; "comemon...comeon!!!...shreek gasp pant!!!" I think Sci-Fi ran it some time ago, it still stands up.PeteS
If nature loathes a vacuum then why do vac. tubes sound so natural???
Yes, I too saw it on broadcast TV, having been transfixed by the story shortly before in Playboy. I have a laserdisc of the theatrical version and it still stands up. I love the scene where he's talkimg with his wife on the public telephone.Every time one of those tank trucks passes me on a highway I think of that movie. Did you know that Spielberg mixed in an animal sound when the truck finally careens over the cliff, the same sound that was also used in the mix of the shark dying in Jaws and later in the Jurrasic Park movies?
