Eyewitness (1970)

Member Rating:

Ziggy (Mark Lester) is the young boy who witnesses the murder of a visiting black official by the police. Much like the boy who cried wolf, Ziggy has been known to stretch the truth and exaggerate. He is unable to convince the adults that he witnessed the killing. The murderous cops are soon on his trail as he hits the road with his sister (Susan George)and her boyfriend (Tony Bonner). The real police soon follow, after convincing his parents that Ziggy has told the truth for once. The boys grandfather (Lionel Jeffries) is the retired Colonel, a lighthouse keeper and lovable curmudgeon. Jeremy Kemp is the police chief, and the main heavy is played by Peter Vaughan. The boyfriend's car is cornered on a treacherous cliff where the villains try to ram the vehicle to the jagged rocks below. ~ Dan Pavlides, Rovi

Yep, I have seen the movie a long time ago and the thing I liked most about it was that the soundtrack was recorded by Van Der Graaf Generator. I was also sent the wrong Eyewitness twice a few years ago. I even tried renting the wrong one to see if I could get the one I wanted but no luck. Now it's a couple of years later and I'm trying to get it again. I hope I get the 1970 one. I't just came in today and it's the right one the 1970 one. I also like anything Susan George is in. And the VDGG soundtrack is instrumentals - they are different recordings than any others by the band. Some of the melodies are familiar. Get it for that reason alone.

I guess I would have liked it but was sent the wrong DVD twice so I never was able to see it.
