Greg Mitchell had a silver screen moment
when he parlayed his long hair into a
photo shoot for the 1977 low-budget
film "Between the Lines." Set in Boston at
a fictitious alt-weekly, the Back Bay
Mainline was obviously modeled on the
two Boston papers then in a fight to
the death, the Phoenix and The Real
Paper. Jeff Goldblum went on to
become a star after playing the Mainline's
"scuzzy rock critic."
