larkim Dec 2015 2:59pm, 18 Dec 2015 358 posts	Quote Pin larkim Tony - perhaps you can help me remember something which occured to me when I watched the new one. I have a fairly strong recollection of watching the 1977 film in a specific cinema with my dad (I would have been 5 or 6 at the time). Before the film, I think, there was a short film shown which seemed to have something to do with motorbikes in a sandy environment. I'd love to find out more details to check if my memory is that good, but I've drawn a blank so far. It could be, of course, that this was for a completely different film, but I've not really been to the cinema too many times as a youngster so it could only relate to a small handful of films. Anyone?
