whats the song playing during eyewitness??

[tfar1959]

It's the title song from the film played by Fairfield Parlour. Surprisingly, the soundtrck features "additional music" by Van Der Graaf Generator.

Popeye Village is still expensive to visit. Worth it, though. Midnight Express has the most accessible set, because it was set on a knight's fort turned prison near the popular market area.

Much respect to the people wearing armor in that heat. Malta can get ridiculously hot.

I have a lot of films shot in Malta, especially the old ones. Malta was much more beautiful in the past.

I will be more than happy to share.

As for The Mackintosh Man, I have that as well.

Awesome collection of films shot in Malta! However there is a major film that was left out: The MacKintosh Man starring Paul Newman. This is a spy movie shot that was partly shot in Malta
