You Will Laugh Your Donkey Off!
The TV Guide review in 1978 said; " Put the kiddies to bed! " Well said! Hilarious, ribald, unforgettable, that's Redd Fox. His talents are on full display and will live on forever! Love Ya Redd!!
Over the Edge (1979)
Love This Movie!
I grew up in Foster City, California in the early '70's. Foster City is the town that this movie is inspired by. It is based on an article in the San Francisco Examiner; "Mousepacks, Kids on a crime spree," June 1973. I graduated from Bowditch Middle School, June, 1970, ( the first graduating class). I had a group of friends who called ourselves; "The Bros," ( we were not a gang!). We hung out at Marlin Park. We went to the rec center at Bowditch"s Gym on Saturday Nights, were we drank booze and smoked pot on the playground. Some of the situations portrayed in the movie actually happened, and some are over the top, and made up to help sell tickets! Some of my friends ended up at: "The Hill," Hillcrest Detention Center. I enjoy watching; "Over The Edge," ( I own a DVD copy), as it reminds me of my youth growing up in Foster City.
