I agree. The movie was bad. They continue to present it on HBO from time to time. Once was enough. Remember "Benny and Joon"? That was filmed in Spokane. It was weird, but there were some funny parts.
Wallace is such a tiny town, it is hard to imagine the sensibility of chasing someone at that speed. Once the guy went off the ramp into town, if some of the cops had continued ahead to the "on" ramp, they would pretty much have him covered. But as you said, the adrenaline was no doubt quite high by then.
When I first move here they were in the procvess of building the Libby Dam. Lots of locals got jobs up there. It was like a mini-boom for the area. We could use another right about now. At least a couple of good heavy snowfalls to get the snow plow drivers working again.
