I love Highway 61! I'm also a big fan of McDonald's "other" film Hard Core Logo.
Little known fact - Darvlay renovated Bruce McDonald's Toronto apartment back in 2001. This is also about the time when his career went to the landfill. Coincidence?
Other little known fact - the guy who played Satan in Highway 61 can be found during every Toronto Map ...[text shortened]... Leafs game at a pub down the street from me. He's actually a quite normal and nice dude.
Buy Satan a beer for me when you see him next.
Edit: Apartment Renovation = Holy God Uber Gay.

"Silent Running", Bruce Dern, Joan Baez soundtrack, amazing music, great story line, the design for R2D2 came from this movie, it seemed like it came from a line in a Joni Mitchell song, Big Yellow Taxi, 'Took all the trees, put 'em in a tree museum, charged the people a dollar and a half just to see 'em, Don't it always seem to go, you don't know what you've got till its gone, paved paradise, put up a parking lot"
Zardoz, Sean Connery, I think highly underrated.
Blade Runner, totally underrated att, look at the cast! Phillip K Dick, writer,(!), Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Edward James Olmos, M. Emmet Walch, Daryl Hannah for god's sake!

The Cincinnati Kid - Classic movie, often underrated. The best movie Steve McQueen ever made.
How about Welcome To Hard Times? Charles Bronson in a period piece of 30's depression America.
