Abstract
In the 1980s, I repeatedly watched a recorded copy of the film Escape from New York on my family’s Panasonic VHS player/recorder–complete with tuning knobs the size of hubcaps. Little did I know that I would star in my own version of the movie (as a domesticated, tattoo-less and slightly flabby version of Snake Plissken) on a recent holiday vacation to the Big Apple.
