“Mulholland Falls”

Good flick, B. May have been covered here, cover it again. I just googled Mullholland falls and hit images.

The movie was loosely based on these guys, the LAPD "Hat Squad", a group of take no $#!+ super investigators that left quite a legacy. Two of them went on to become judges. Their history is worth a look.

Thanks Bama. In that shot Nolte is wearing hat #2, which is very nice. The bow reminds me of a Dobbs 20/40. I’ll have to record it again just for some hat shots. Oddly many camera shot show the hats very well with all 4 fedoras well represented.

Wow! I'm hoping to get there next year...
Well worth it. You're on the reservation so you can't go down into the canyon without being on a Navajo tour or other Navajo guide. It's 2,000 ft down from the rim. I would recommend hiring a Navajo guide & tell him/her the kinds of things you want to see. Plenty of petroglyphs & ruins, photographic opportunities are everywhere. The tour busses are like crowded cattle calls & they don't venture off the beaten path. There are still about a dozen Navajo families living in the canyon.

That's great advice, thanks HJ. We'll try to do our homework before going.
 
A Spaghetti Western from back in the era of gratuitous nudity, as I recall.
Yes, and innuendo as well I suppose....I can see it now....Jenny walks in on him when he is bathing in a tin tub....he covers his manhood with that enormous hat.....and she says...."NOW I see why you wear such a BIG HAT!!!!".....:eek::eek::rolleyes::rolleyes:;);):D
