Nighthawks... and Nighthawks

Remember Jeremiah's series on looking for Hopper's Nighthawks? He wrote a condensed version of it for the Times... and his op-ed appears there today.

Meanwhile! Speaking of Nighthawks...reminds me that I haven't seen "Nighthawks," the surprisingly decent Sly Stallone-Rutger Hauer thriller from 1981 in years....it features a climatic scene aboard the Roosevelt Island tram...
