all roads lead back to Ryan's Hope

[gwynnega]

Last night I watched the original version of The Taking Of Pelham One Two Three (1974), which had some wonderful footage of seventies NYC (next best thing to the TARDIS I really could use for Jo book research). Earl Hindman (Bob Reid on Ryan's Hope) played one of the hijackers--apparently he had quite a career playing menacing types before he was cast as kind-hearted Bob. Plus Kenneth McMillan (Charlie Ferris) played a cop, and Anna Berger (Nancy Feldman's mother Beryl) played one of the subway passengers. Needless to say, all of these actors have vast IMDB pedigrees...
