Title: Jan & Dean movie Post by: Forshorn on July 04, 2012, 10:48:41 AM This is hard to find; I've been looking for it: the made-for-TV movie "Deadman's Curve." Not "Citizen Kane," but cool. Anyway, if anyone is interested and it's not against the rules..... here's a link! http://dotsub.com/view/dd70723a-9cb2-4e2a-a9f5-b939fd7ffff7 For whatever reason, the flick is kind of hard on Jan. Title: Re: Jan & Dean movie Post by: Rocker on July 04, 2012, 10:54:56 AM Been wanting to see this for so long although there are a lot of mistakes in the movie as I have heard. Thanks.
I think the actors do their job very well, although "Jan" doesn't look that much like the real Jan. Title: Re: Jan & Dean movie Post by: Kirk on July 04, 2012, 01:42:50 PM I remember seeing this when it first aired in early 1978. Haven't seen it since ... so thanks for the link! I can never see Bruce Davison in anything---and he seems to be in everything---without remembering watching this. And Jan is Captain Apollo/Zarek... ha.
In case anybody is interested (and hasn't seen it), the Rolling Stone article that inspired the movie is online at author Paul Morantz's website (along with a nice story about how it ended up on the internet): http://www.paulmorantz.com/stories/the-road-back-from-dead-mans-curve/ Title: Re: Jan & Dean movie Post by: Rocker on July 04, 2012, 01:50:34 PM If it wasn't for Nixon, Jan Dean would've been on the cover of Rolling Stone.
