Last Non Western You Watched

[Rocklin]

Kelly's Heroes was my choice last night, always liked the last part were the three of them are walking to the Tiger Tank just like three men in a western even the piece of music goes with the walk.

The only thing that I found that was a shame in the movie-is that that "Tiger" wasnt a real Tiger but a converted T-34.

Since I had the laser disc edition of "The Alamo" up and running yesterday, today I watched Brian Huberman's documentary "John Wayne and the Alamo", which is an extra. This is the full 68 minute version and not the edited 42 minute version which is on the DVD. Don't know what's missing on the DVD, but if you ever get a chance to view this, grab it. It's full of personal interviews with long deceased cast members and home movies taken in 1959 which show tons of candid material and deleted battle footage, including Duke throwing a lance head into the chest of another charging lancer.
By far the most touching scene is an interview with an aged Ken Curtis watching his young self on TV singing in "The Spirit of the Alamo" video. The documentary is dedicated to Ken.


We deal in lead, friend.

Rocklin: dambusters"
We were in England in 1995 for 3 weeks. I went to an Airfield on the north side of London there were displays of old airplalnes. They were featuring "Dam Busters", I read all the signs and love the technical story of how the Engineer tasked with making the bomb to use on the Dams did it. He saw a child's water play toy and designed the bombs so they would spin when dropped and stay in the water and sink to the bottom of the dam.
I have just recorded the movie to see in the near future. Great Story, like so many out of WWII are.

The Derwent Dam that they practiced on is not far from where I live, The world's only flying Lancaster makes a low pass over the Derwent Dam, with living so close I usually see it coming over.

Watched Convoy last night, Kris Kristofferson, Ali MacGraw and Ernest Borgnine, wished there was another movie around like this.

Spent my evening watching Reach For The Sky starring Kenneth More & Muriel Pavlow. The true story of airman Douglas Bader who overcame the loss of both legs in a 1931 flying accident to become a successful fighter pilot and wing leader during World War II.

My goodness Tommy, didn't know you could fly without your feet....must be like a car. Have to look this up and see where to find it. They ever fix the sketch framing to your liking? Was hoping to put it up as the first multiple framed. KEITH

Taking the frame back to shop next time we go up Town with the car don't fancy carrying it up through the snow, had a word with the framers she said to bring it back in and we'll do it how you want it.
