That line immediately had me thinking of the movie "Speed", but funny enough, this story actually pre-dates the movie by roughly 2 years. But it does make me wonder if they had the same source of inspiration.
- jihadjihad 5y agoI was thinking of that exact sequence in Speed as I read the article. I guess instead of a frustrated artist, Dennis Hopper's character was a frustrated ex-cop, so it kind of fits.
