Reportedly bad Rod Serling script from a novel by Jack
Finney, of all people, John (I haven't seen this one yet). I
dug caper movies, as well, but GOLDEN BULLS didn't cut it for
me, then...but I did enjoy the likes of THE GREAT RACE then,
so go figure (and the likes of FORBIDDEN GAMES and RASHOMON,
on the Janus Collection PBS THEATER package, but I was a
video junkie then, even moreso than now). TM

okay, I haven't seen this picture since I was a kid either.
but back then I
liked it a lot. I imagine that upon viewing it now, it's
probably every bit
as dated as the similarly vintaged ASSAULT ON A QUEEN.
however caper movies
like that had everything I liked about movies in them, and
I'll continue to remember it fondly.
had no idea BULLS was based on a book. have to track it down.
anyone know if QUEEN was as well?
