Blow Out was the one good John Travolta movie.
RE: Blow Out was the one good John Travolta movie.
What? Not Saturday Night Fever? :)
I saw “Chappaquiddick” last night. They did a good job and played it pretty “straight” — it could have been so much harsher on the Kennedys and the Democrats, of course, but at least the filmmakers presented some of the key facts in a way that Hollyweird and the MSM never want to touch.
The theater was virtually empty (just one other couple), so I fear this is going to be a commercial flop unless that showing was very atypical.
I’ll be helping the movie out this weekend. I very seldom go to out to cinemas, so this will be a rare exception.
About 48 years too late.
The bottom line is, Ted was having an affair with Mary Jo, and he was drunk, and he did leave the scene of the accident, and failed to report it in a timely manner. Anyone else would have gone to jail for manslaughter
Good. teddy got away with his crime since it happened in 1969. A normal person would still be in jail. He used his money and influence to get away scot free.
He was a worm and a turd. I hope there’s a way he can see past the flames and the smoke in the place that the pope says doesn’t exist and watch this movie.
Because disco sucked.
I still want to see Teddy removed from Arlington.
He desecrates hallowed ground.
‘Great scream.....great scream’
Hollywood is desperate to get Conservatives back to the movies.
Notice that they don’t make any films that would actually hurt current democrat politicians.
Me too...
Ted was screwing whatever he could back then, but he had a German mistress as his regular squeeze. The girls on the island were all 20 something single girls partying with 30 + married guys. That was a formula for casual sex even back then. Ted made 17 credit card calls after midnight and before he reported it. Some to the mistress and a lot to his handlers and lawyers. He also arranged for his private pilot to ferry Mary Jo’s body to Scranton in one of them. Nixon had a guy there the next day investigating the incident and knew all this.
Not “Pulp Fiction”?
The route of Ted's driving on Chappaquiddick
Very interesting - about 11 minutes.
Yep, all them old people in that nursing home may not have had all their wits about them but they remembered that they didn't like Ted Kennedy.
Very interesting——and according to that video he walked right past my aunt’s house on North Water St——I don’t recall ever hearing that version before.
.
So, he makes a fast beeline down a road drunk. And the rest is history.
