A NICE END TO "AUTOMOBILE WEEK"!
The famous "blown turn scene" that Steve left in the final cut of "Bullitt", May, 1968.
The less-than-famous re-creation from my Indie film "Turning Back Time" saluting Steve McQueen in November, 2003. Ford Motor Company executives in Dearborn, Michigan loved viewing this scene on a closed circuit feed. No, it isn't available, sorry!_
Who knows what we'll focus on next week?
Enjoy You Weekend!

Diane: Happy Weekend to YOU TOO! lol!! :D)
Living here in Michigan, you make some interesting points in your automobile week posts--I love McQueen's mustang.
That was a cool car and a cool movie.
Thanks for sharing that Michael.

Michael, is that YOU in the bottom pic? And why isn't this Inde film of yours available? Your fans wanna see it ;D
Sage! Glad you liked it. It was rough and tumble at times but I surprised myself by selecting the topic unexpectedly and just "running with the ball"--so to speak.:)
Glenn: I know you appreciate fine cars too! THANKS!!!
Carolyn: Long story-short: I was asked by a former Philadelphia producer to film an "unscripted" 15 minute audition film on any subject I was passionate about. I drew up story boards and scouted my own locations for 2 weeks and we ended up filming for 8 hours in 34 degree weather in the Mid-West, battling the elements and even escaping a confrontation with a deranged man with a gun in his pocket. Post-production editing took twice as long for two reasons. The producer in Philly couldn't reach a decision. Secondly, I re-edited the film and approached Ford Motor Company in Dearborn, Michigan. For legal reasons, Ford and I chose to limit the showing of the film to key management and engineering executives only on a closed circuit feed. When the producer was ultimately dismissed, I just decided not to include it on my Blog Page. But there are more projects in the future, so stay tuned and lol!:-)
Wow Michael, even the production of your audition film sounds like a McQueen adventure ;)
And I'm definately staying tuned in!
Carolyn: Thanks for your support! It means a lot to me and I really appreciate it! :D)
