Simon Oakland, Wikipedia entry

I must be wrong, because I don't see the film in his Wikipedia entry. I remember him mostly from Psycho:



Simon Oakland at IMDB

Full disclosure: I had to look him up. I thought his name was Harry Guardino. Harry Guardino is someone else entirely.

What would I do without the internet?

Have a life, I guess.

Have to say, as good as it was in '69, some movies don't hold up through time. This is one of them.
I always thought it was good film-making, heading out on the road with no script, a suitcase full of drugs and a couple of cool bikes. A couple of big names and some studio cash....

Everybody got paid.
