As I mentioned, I haven't seen The Train in ~40 years, and then only once, on TV. I'm not sure what it was that impressed me so much; it's not my favorite genre. But it's one of those films that once seen, I wanted to see again and again. I watched for another broadcast, and never saw it listed. And for some reason or other never looked for it in either VHS or DVD. One of those things that slips the mind too often.

I have a friend who picks up movie DVDs at yard sales and estate sales and online, and not too long ago I asked him if he had The Train. As it turned out, he did, but he had lent it to another friend and had to wait until that friend sent it back, which he did a few weeks ago.

I've watched snippets online, and frankly much of what I know ABOUT the film I've picked up from online references rather than due to memory of that one and only viewing.

I'm setting aside time this week-end to FINALLY watch the film again.



TG, who also just the other day ran across the source of Pale Blue Dot's moniker again. Damn, but I still miss Carl Sagan. :cry:
