Having War Movie Day at hour house. Got 'Thin Red Line' , 'The Hunters' and 'Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison' with

'The Bridges At Toko-Ri' in reserve. Where are the William Holden's of the current age? I guess I can think of a few contenders.

I can never get enough of Robert Mitchum and 'The Hunters' is a bit dodgy on the ground but has IMO the best and most thrilling flying sequences on film. Forget 'Top Gun', give me an F-86 going toe to toe with a Mig-15 any day.

The wife is on an over nighter with her sister so I have a couple buddies over for this a shoot em up beginning to the New Year.
