Marathon Man (USA, 1976)

Marathon Man (USA, 1976). Director: John Schlesinger, Stars: Dustin Hoffman, Laurence Olivier, Roy Scheider, Marthe Keller...

This is a pretty tense movie, and might put you off dentists for a bit. In a brief scene in Paris, there’s a shot of a creepy bad guy playing pinball... at first they show the ball bouncing around the playfield of a Bow And Arrow (Bally, 1974)...


...but then they show the backbox of a Polo (Gottlieb, 1970)...

...which is what he’s actually playing in the long shot...

Game over.
