Great addition to The Stranger!

One of my favorites is a largely-forgotten gem directed by Edward Dmytryk (The Caine Mutiny; Murder, My Sweet): Mirage (1965) ...Gregory Peck heads up stellar cast as an amnesiac that someone is trying to kill—and he doesn't know why. Atmospheric B&W cinematography showcases iconic '60s NYC locations. Very weird & compelling thriller... w/ Diane Baker, Walter Matthau, George Kennedy, Jack Weston, Leif Erickson... Seattle's own Quincy Jones provides the jazzy, jarring, mysterious score.

Strangers With Candy is streaming on Comedy Central's app

@1 Thanks!
@2 Great suggestion—It's totally unstreamable, per Reelgood: https://reelgood.com/movie/mirage-1965
@3 Only the series.

Love this feature, Chase, please keep it up!

Saw Before the Devil Knows You're Dead in a theater, didn't seem to miss any marks there.

Well worth finding.

But I have also seen it listed on some streaming service in the past, so it may be again.

You can also get the Strangers with Candy DVDs from The Seattle Public Library. They have 7 copies of the complete series. If you are a Stephen Colbert fan, you will love his singing in the series. He looks like he is having so much fun.

I do believe the Seattle Times and P-I changed the movie title to "The Last American Nice Girl" in the ads for that movie. Yes that is a brutal ending also.

This is awesome. Chase is an absolute gem and one of the only reasons I read The Stranger.

Saying that TLAV "has strong Porky's vibes" is an over-simplification of all teen movies from that area.

Semi-related, although they're not "unstreamable", someday watch Private Lessons (1981), Private School (1983), and Private Resort (1985).

(era, not area!)

These DVD's are also available from Netflix's DVD.com.

@15 We'll start including that, I'm subscribing to Netflix DVD this week!

Sedaris reprises the role of Pam in the Season 5 episode Shenanigans.

@8 and has some of the best single lines ever said on television.
