Pablo Ferro’s best opening title is still Bullitt’s

There’s still no rhyme or reason on when Vox allows me to access my blog here. This morning, I got in a private post, but clicking ‘Create’ again, nothing happened for the next hour.
   I wanted to share this opening title from Bullitt, after posting another one from Pablo Ferro on my Tumblr blog. This remains my favourite Ferro design. Though set in Chicago, only the skyline scene was shot there; the rest was in San Francisco.

   There’s something great about US design in 1968. From there, as someone mentioned to me, it went downhill.
   I see ’68 as a positive year for a lot of design there, while ’69 began to look garish, particularly in fashion and hairstyles.

Lalo Schrifrin was/is my favorite movie composer.

I think he’s still going strong, Zak. Pretty sure he did all three Rush Hour films.

[this is good] This is so smooth and "Jazz at the movies" the cinematography really adds another dimension too.
