    What a change in 70 yrs. Having a mink coat was sure a status symbol in the by-gone days. Now no one will touch them. This is straight up HWY 99, way before I-5. We lived in Fresno, and the in-laws lived in Orange County, so we were up & down the HWY 99 many times and we always stopped at Gorman for a break. A good movie. We have since moved out of CA.

    When I was a kid I watched this movie with my Mom. We got a good laugh at Sid Melton asking for his first try with a gun. After that every time we saw him we always called him " First Gun". It was years before I actually knew his name 😂

      "Jock".... Ow dear yes, Dallas... Booze slurping millionaires who had nothing else to do apparntly than to make each other's life as miserable as possible.... Gosh, we low class folks loved it, it's like today's Real Crime Series in which preferably the super rich in "upscale neighbourhoods" get slaughtered, poisoned, cut into jigsaw pieces by another rich greedy person... Sometimes I wonder if these things aren't showed with so much fanfare to keep the low and middle incomes calm, the old "crime doesn't pay and the super rich aren't as happy as you think" approach

    The Ridge Route! how cool is this ole flick.... A few years ago what is left of the Old Ridge Route we explored and it was really fun. Loved Palmdale was in the storyline. Lived there for 30 years before it turned for the worst which is sadly the present state.

    All right CZcams says my comments should always be respectful, but first of all you really need to learn how to upload a movie correctly you plaster your suggestion of a movie while the movie is still playing at the end with the characters credits. If people want to watch other movies they can look in your playlist you don't have to ruin a movie especially if you are a person that plays these older movies in the highest standards you're not the only person that does this there's a lot of people here on CZcams that don't know how to correctly upload movies
