Puritan Board Doctor
Steven Spielberg's first film, "Duel" (1971), about an ordinary businessman (Dennis Weaver) being followed and menaced by a psychotic big-rig driver (veteran stunt driver Corey Loftin), is half a century old this year. It's become a classic, and still one of Spielberg's best. Spielberg himself has reportedly described it as "'The Birds' [Alfred Hitchcock's 1963 thriller] on wheels." The truck driver is never seen and Weaver's character never discovers why he was targeted by him. If you get a chance to see it, I recommend it.
