Movie from the era when the number of police cars in a scene was a measure of how good the movie was. Or at least the producers thought so. - @Monday, November 5, 2018 1:56 AM

I wished there was a documentary film & book about the actual case. I could only find 1 picture of the real lady (whose name was actually Ila Fay Dent; her husband's name was Robert Dent). I can't find much about it... - @Friday, June 15, 2018 7:45 PM

That’s a Steven Spielberg’s movie from 1974....I think. - @Wednesday, April 18, 2018 10:30 AM
