On this day, November 13, 1981, The Pursuit of D. B. Cooper premiered in theaters, directed by Roger Spottiswoode and featuring an impressive cast, including Robert Duvall, Treat Williams, Kathryn Harrold, Paul Gleason, and R.G. Armstrong. Inspired by the real-life mystery of the infamous skyjacker D.B. Cooper, the film follows the fictionalized chase and escape of Cooper after his daring hijacking and disappearance. Despite a significant budget of $14 million, the movie brought in only $3.7 million at the box office but remains a unique piece of Hollywood’s take on an enduring mystery.
