I first saw The Monitors in 1973 in the RIT dorms on a distant Canadian TV station. Much clearer on Netflix Instant. http://imdb.to/foYHZo |

@devans00 It's an odd SF comedy based on a Keith Laumer novel. Lots of 60s celebrity cameos, including a favorite comedian of the era. |
17:45 |
@devans00 I meant SF as in Science Fiction. Actually, it was filmed in Chicago. |
20:30 |
First The Monitors, then Anastasia with Ingrid Bergman. Becoming addicted to Netflix Instant. I really don't need another addiction. |
