Why Not! (1977)
10/10
An eye opener
3 January 2009
I'll never forget the night I went to the theater to watch it, once it was released in this country back in the late 1970's. I was living in a small community and remember that I felt like wearing a wig and dark sunglasses, in case I should meet somebody I knew. Well I didn't. I went with great anticipation that was met fully. It opened my eyes and prepared my mind to what a wonderful life that lay ahead of me. I was not to be disappointed. The movie is wonderful. My wish for the future is that it will run in the theaters again, as it has a story and a message to tell to people today, as it will have in the future. My wish is also that it will be released on DVD - soon.

Deserves any award it is nominated for

We went to see this beautiful movie in our local theater, as we did not have time to watch it in San Francisco earlier last month. We were surprised, though, to learn that it only ran in on theater there. Expectations were high, as we had heard a lot about it, but they were met fully, if not more. What blew me away completely, was the scene with Roberta Maxwell and Peter McRobbie. I completely relived a visit with the parents of a friend of mine from military. This scene, as this movie in general, is a masterpiece in how much can be said and expressed in so few and well picked words. Actually, the most emotional scenes hardly have any lines at all.

Cannon (1971–1976)
10/10
Looking for video tapes with the original 1970's episodes.
10 November 2004
Throughout the 1970's Denmark had only one TV Channel. We had Rockford, Kojak, Columbo, and McCloud, but no Frank Cannon. Those of us who could watch West German TV, though, had a chance to enjoy the Frank Cannon series, if we could live with the fact that he spoke German. German TV dubbed (and still do)very much anything foreign into German. It was also the time before a VCR would be found in every home. Had it not been for that, I would probably had ignored the language barrier and recorded the shows for keeps. I just loved to watch him cruise around in the Lincoln Mark IV and solve crimes. Is there anyone who can help me with tapes with this series? Kind regards Mogens
