In the "Big Sleep" there were a couple of them at Eddie Mars' gambling joint.

"Glengarry Glen Ross" I guess Baldwin isnt as good of an actor in that movie as I thought he was. Judging from the voicemail he left, it looks like he was playing himself in the movie.

"L.A. Confidential" "Braveheart" "Gladiator"

"Saving Private Ryan" For all its flaws, it is still a very good movie and set a new standard for war films. "Zoolander" the more I see it, the better it gets.

A few of my favorites are "Memphis Belle" "Thunderbolt" "Ramrod to Emden". There was another one about an RAF Lancaster crew, very similar to "Memphis Belle" but i cant remember its name. something like "S for Sugar" or something like that.

I had a cigarette girl at my wedding. She asked me to dance at some point, we had Mora's Modern Rythmists as our band. anyway, when I was tossing her around, her strapless dress kept falling down and giving the band a show. My new bride didnt appreciate it!

yes it was the name of Gibson's dog. the dog was killed before the mission hence the use of his name for the code word. that name was avery common name for that breed of dog. There was nothing racist about its use. This whole issue is very much like the issue with the use of a swastika. the...

Sorry about that. No intention to offend anyone. I can understand banning words in the context of hate but in the context of discussion of the context of a movie from the era we all enjoy didnt seem like a problem to me.

My mistake, wrong "hell" I should have said "Hell is for Heros" I remember another remake, with "Hell" in the name. "Hell in the Pacific" with Lee Marvin and Toshiro Mifune was remade as "Enemy Mine" with Dennis Quaid and Louis Gossett Jr. This times aliens replaced Japs. Quaid seems...

I'm a WWII movie buff and there have been several remakes in this genre of film. The great wartime movie "Sahara" with Bogart was remade as a cable TV pic starring of all people, Jim Belushi! Need I say more! Another one of my favorites is "To Hell and Back" with Steve Mcqueen. This was...

Thanks for the review. I was wondering if someone could make a Mae West repro that looked good. The ones used in "band of Brothers" were aweful! My birthday is coming up so i am putting it on my list for my wife. She bought me a STEN last year so maybe she will come through again!

A member of my re-enactment group worked for a police dept as a civilian. He told us many stories of weapons that had been confiscated for whatever reason that were being melted down. Almost all the main weapons from WW2went through there. He tried in vain to get them to donate them to a...
