I’ll watch it again. I remember the first time in the back seat of my parents 49 Plymouth at the Starlite drive in Stamford Ct. I thought it was the coolest movie ever. Still do!
I have Thunder Road, 2 Lane Blacktop, American Graffiti, Bullitt, and Vanishing Point on a hard drive. I watch them often.
I tried to stay up and watch it... but no. I saw it recently, TCM had it up for about a week. I need to check back, they have at least a couple of 1949-ish Mitchum movies at the present time.
