48 Hours say, "In November 2007, Chris and Debra Hall were driving back to California from a family vacation in Mexico. With them, their children, Tyler and Divinia. When they were a few miles from the U.S. border, their truck was hijacked by a group of armed kidnappers and they were driven into the mountains outside Tijuana. Chris, Debra and Divinia all lived to tell the story."
This classic episode last aired on 01/02/2010.
48 Hours, "Mark Stover’s body was still missing when the trial over his death began. Michiel Oakes said the body would prove his innocence, and that he would reveal everything when he took the stand."
Note: Michiel Oakes has not told police where Mark Stover's dead body is at. His sister still searches the pacific northwest for brother's remains.
I saw this when it originally aired. This 6-part series opens it up with a lot of details. Michiel stands a 5'6" and works hard to compensate for his height. He pushes hard to prove he is a master at security guard techniques. If you listen to him. He had snapped from reality.
I believe that Linda and her dad asked him to kill Mark. They both deny it. They are just as responsible. If you listen to Linda. She testified because she loves the attention. It's all about her who lied about Mark stalking her. She is all drama and it makes me sick.!
20/20 says, "An engaged woman and her mother are murdered. The killer's letters taunt police."
THE BIG CHILL distributed by COLUMBIA pictures (1983). The production budget climbed to $8 million and grossed $56 million at the box office. It was directed by Lawrence Kasdan. The cast had 8 main characters and they were backed up by 1960's music. This movie is a wonderful nostalgic trip to a by gone era.
The story is simple. College friends from the University of Michigan hold a reunion 12 years after graduation. One of their close friends had recently committed suicide. These 8 classmates reflect on their lives and how they all changed after college.
This movie was popular among the "baby boomers" from the 1960's. They came out of huge social change with the civil rights movement and the Vietnam War.
What brings the nostalgia is the music from the 1960's. Each song is played in those movie "scenes" which brings back good memories. The album soundtrack peaked at number #17 on Billboard's Hot 200 Albums Chart.
When the film was released in 1983. The album went "gold" selling 500,000 copies. It went "Platinum" in 1984 with over 1 million copies sold.
I never saw it in a movie theater. My brother and sister rented, "The Big Chill" on VHS Home Video. That's where I watched it numerous times.
The Hollywood studios do not make this kind of film anymore. "The Big Chill" didn't depend on flashbacks either. The story surrounded these fun characters who lived through the 1960's.
This is on BluRay. Check it out if only for the music. You will not be disappointed.
