Our local, factual 'REMEMBER PEARL HARBOR' "Grafitti" legend was one of the best of all 45 shows!

Warning: Spoilers
I live 4 blocks east of this "happening"! Being brief as possible, you three wonderful actors were chillingly superb! I had the cold chills of excitement for 6:59 including Jonathons intro and finish! 😮 Frank Edwards book of "Amazing Facts" all true etc. Possibly could have inspired "Grafitti". Owensville, Indiana's OHS HUGE white chalked sidewalk message scrawled out "REMEMBER PEARL HARBOR" by a then unknown 4th grader and Korean War veteran, the late Robert W. Roll of Cincinnati, Ohio. This strangely inspired event became a quickly subdued local/nation wide "who done it" mystery destined for the ages beginning on December 7, 1939.

All major USA newspapers reported this fact soon after the attack. Hm! Our towns drug store owner "Doc" J. Roy Strickland had a daily 30 year column in the Evansville (IN) Courier and Press, and I think it was he who likely released this news.

Thank you all, writers and directors too. The spoilers you ask? Yes, there's more!!

Spoiler #1 A reminder at all schools and for OHS the clocks time of 0755 horns/bells sounded off as the 5 minute warning to begin classes at 0800. The first Japanese bomb fell on Ford Island at 0755!😮

Best, C. J. White OHS Class of 66: who's vowed to keep Robert's legend fresh on the still acessable Internet even today being 82 years later! My review here is just another example on this December 7, 2021 and all future days barring no other new, surprise, dastardly attacks on USA's freedom, itself!

Specifically for Graffiti with Jonathan Frakes and great company

"A Touch of Evil" theme resulted in a superbly directed and acted "Graffiti"! The white chalked REMEMBER PEARL HARBOR "fact" happened in my hometown in SW Indiana. The prank was viewed by students and faculty during a Thursday morning at OHS on December 7, 1939. Plus mostly nationwide, both high and grade schools warning bells or buzzers first call for class at 8:00 AM sound off at 0755. The first bomb to fall was reported base wide on radio as, "This is not a drill.......@ 0755!" I keep the late Korean veteran Robert W. Roll's graffiti fresh on the Internet. I miss that program I just voted a 10 again!😉 My last review on this same "fact" just disappeared? My first 1 and only review at IMBd Movies and TV, just for "Graffiti", now needs to be changed to a 0. 😅 C. J. W.
