Thanks for digging out the links! ;-)
We LOVED “Day of the Triffids”!
Oh the joys of living in Seattle. If it’s not cloud cover, it’s really tall trees occluding the sky.
If you get out to Seattle’s outside surrounding suburbs, or close to the mountains on either side, you should be able to see stuff... of course if it’s a clear sky (which luckily in the summer here is mostly clear.)
The other night out in the East side, we were able to see the ISS fly over head bright and on schedule. :)
Good Luck!
We tried to find it tonight without any luck, but will probably have to order it from Amazon. That was one of my favorite movies as a young man.
I like the actor, John Duttine, who played the lead in "Triffids". He also starred in a terrific Masterpiece Theatre series, "To Serve Them All My Days", about a man who started out teaching at, and ended up serving as Headmaster of an English public school for boys.
That is definitely going into our film library!
