Watching “The Outside Man “ (1972) I knew it existed but never got around to. LA location extravaganza and a pretty good chase down in Speedway, canals and the old amusement park in Venice https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0070083/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk

Was 1972 a special year in cinema? Pure chance but watched two movies from that year recently, completely unrelated, but they felt original and raw. I know little of that era, and they may just be copycats. The movies are “Fear is the key” and “Silent Run”.

Here's my theory. During the 70s, there were a bunch of consolidations, like Gulf Western taking over film studios and everything. So before that, the silent generation that was in charge of Hollywood have no understanding Of the big generation, and the hippies, and the opposition to the war in Vietnam, and they still were working under the old Hollywood music industry, that you need to produce 10 for 1 to succeed. That was before Jaws, and they decided that they could actually reverse engineer entertainment, both in music and in film which had been a long managed decline
