By the way, I caught part of a movie on tv a few weeks ago and the scene was filmed in the Quad. Don’t remember what movie though. Anybody know what movie?

That was a store in St Gabriel near the levee as I recall. There is a bar room scene from what used to be The Bayou that was outside the gates on that little road that runs between the road that runs between Highland and the other one that sloped down the hill.

And Greek amphitheater.

Same here. They did that at least one game maybe two. As a sidebar, Timothy Hutton was married to Debra Winger and they lived in a house in my neighborhood, Lakeside off of Bluebonnet and Highland. I used to see them walking with their baby stroller. One time I saw Timothy in his boxers eating pizza in front of his kitchen window at night, while driving by. In before, creepy and cool story bro.
