Westworld......

I think one of the first movies that AI was really introduced…….i could be wrong, but it’s one of the first TCM spokesman said it was. And I believe everything TCM says. And it’s been a great movie so far…..

1. I'd seen it a few times over the years but my ex hadn't

so when we started watching the tv show Westworld I told her she should see the original source material. Let's just say that she's not the fan of '70s sci-fi that I am. Meh, I still love it.

2. Only thing??? I have NEVER been a fan of Richard Benjamin....ugh

3. I never cared much for him as an actor.

But he directed the wonderful film “My Favorite Year”.

5. It's funny you should say that, my ex commented at the time about how hairy (read: disgusting) he was in that movie

which definitely colored her perception of his performance, I believe

I've always liked him, be it in this movie, Goodbye Columbus, or one of my all-time favorite films, Catch 22.

He was also in a very brief sci-fi tv comedy in the '70s called Quark, about a garbage scow set some time in the future. Eleven-year-old me loved it, I recall.

I suppose he's an acquired taste.

4. We're a mixed family here, too...

although my love is the old 50's SciFi. In fact, I watched three of them in a row last night... Earth vs. the Spider, When Worlds Collide, and Them (shoot the antenni!)... Hubby watches, but he's not as enamored with them as I am. My favorite of all time, tho is The Day the Earth Stood Still (the original).
