Viewing Notes
RIP Val Kilmer
December 31, 1959—April 1, 2025
First time viewing this. It’s fun and really at its best when Kilmer is onscreen delivering some wry one liner. Amusing to view after watching VAL when he says “the Hollywood came calling…” and it cuts to this movie. Unreal.
Neat to see Deborah Foreman in this but why didn’t she have a bigger role?!? That’s nuts.
