Duel (Collector's Edition) description This is the TV movie that put Steven Spielberg on the map, shortly before he made The Sugarland Express. Working from a script by Richard Matheson, the film stars Dennis Weaver as a mild-mannered traveling salesman who unintentionally angers the driver of a semi truck. Suddenly, the truck is not only riding his tail but trying to run him off the road. No matter what he does (pulling over, stopping at a diner, calling the cops), he can't get rid of it. Spielberg makes the wise decision of never showing the driver, even as he cranks the voltage on the film's suspense elements. As a result, the truck itself takes on an air of satanic menace--even a personality of sorts--as it seems to hunt its human prey. Spielberg made a lot out of a little, suggesting just how skilled a storyteller he would become. --Marshall Fine |

| I was 14 yrs old in 1971, when this movie showed on TV. And when I brought my 1st DVD player I search Amazon to see if they had the "Duel" (the 1st movie Director Steven Spielberg created. Amazon had this movie-I couldnt believe!! Its a movie about road rage! which weird in itself-since thats what is happening now! in 2007(yr). its about a 18 big rig wheeler truck thats, for some really strange reason, trys to kill this man that driving along the california interstate (to see a business client) 200 miles away from his home. Its suspense-bcause you never see whose trying the 18 big rig wheeler truck!!! | |
