[78-L] ^Hays Office query off topic

[Taylor Bowie]

By coincidence,  just last night I was reading director Andre De Toth's 
recollections about that movie  He was determined to make any and all 
settings as realistic as possible,  including the bedroom.  The final heist 
scene was actually filmed at the Glendale branch of Bank of America...I 
doubt they'd allow that today.

To make this a 78 thread,  the first scene has Dub Taylor as a gas station 
attendant who says (to the guy who is about to rob him)  that he'd requested 
the Doris Day record which is playing on the radio.
