9/10
Filmed a Mile from my house
2 March 2016
I saw this being filmed around 1969/70. Some scenes were filmed at a bar that was made to look like a gas station/store. I was 12 at the time. I would ride my bike down Feather River Blvd to the place they were filming. The fried egg on the pavement I saw. My mom has pictures of her and George Kennedy and Jim Brown on the set during a break in filming. I loved the film...of course I was a bit biased. It took me seeing the film when I was older to understand and appreciate this film. I have seen it several times and it doesn't get old. The actors played their parts well. It does remind someone of the old south and it's difficulties especially with people of color in that part of the country. Of course our town and Colusa could have been mistaken for a town in the south back then.
