I loved that film as a kid!

Mine too. I used to come in off the street from one escapade or another and just sit with her every so often just to spend some time with her. Over time, I began to see those movies had a very high production value.

The old man, well he was the old man - the fishing and fixing cars and all the rest.

Good times...

So did I. And I couldn't remember the name, and went through a list of all dinosaur movie plots from the 1970s to find the name. It was on only once that I know of, and I saw it at somebody else's house.
