   Somewhere recently I read that _Deer Hunter_ was Michael Cimino's
SECOND film.  Does anyone know the name of his first?

That was THUNDERBOLT AND LIGHTFOOT, which starred Clint Eastwood and
Jeff Bridges.  I liked it.

Cimino co-scripted SILENT RUNNING (1972) and MAGNUM FORCE (1973) and directed
and scripted THUNDERBOLT AND LIGHTFOOT (1974) before directing and scripting
THE DEER HUNTER (1978).
