George C. Scott
is a divorced doctor who suddenly finds himself entangled with kooky, confused
Julie Christie in 1968's Petulia, directed by Richard Lester. Brilliant
cinematography, out-of-sequence storytelling, great performances, and several
San Francisco locations make this an intriguing, memorable film. Appearances
by local actors and performers, including both the Grateful Dead and Big
Brother and the Holding Company, add to the rich local flavor. A number
of scenes include beautiful, artistically photographed moments in unexpected
locations such as the distinctive supermarket
at 1095 Hyde Street at California, and the view
from 19th Avenue and Lincoln that appears along the south bound drive
through Golden Gate Park.
