Loved '12 O'clock High' or most anything with Gregory Peck. 'Pork Chop Hill' is another great film. Also 'King Rat', a great POW flick.

..."12 O'clock high"

WE were shown that on Petty Officers' Leadership Course as examples of good and bad leadership. It made a nice change from assault courses, runs, swims, parades and teaching drill.

We were also. But we didn't do the other stuff. We were sailors. We don't do assault courses. Swims or runs we did twice a year (badly). Parades? [X(] Sailors? Next you'll be talking Gobs with guns!!!![X(] Drills? Ok, we did do drills. But not at school. [:D]

'Pork Chop Hill'
Yes, a good film. I had been in bed for a few weeks with paratyphoid and the local Air Force group had the movie from the States and held a screening for me when I was well enough to watch it.

Inglorious Bastards tithe...[&o] ([:D])

Is that any good? Couldn't get into it much... maybe because I couldn't turn on the subtitles... a must course'

i kinda enjoyed it...i thought clooney and pitt were entertaining...i cringe everytime i think of that damn combat knife cutting swastika's in foreheads and taking scalps...typical terantino...
I really enjoyed Ingloreous Basterds, FWIW. I saw it twice. Nice piece of acting by the guy that played Col. Hans Landa particularly. Chilling. He won best supporting actor for it, if I recall correctly.

Much of the rest was typical Tarantino-obtuse and tangential dialogue, blood, plot twists, blood and shooting. Oh, right-there was blood too.

I don't recall Clooney in it, but Mike Myers ("Oh, behave!") had a bit role. Pitt was OK, but his "Tennessee" accent was laughably misplaced.

I watched a couple of recorded episodes of The Mentalist with my lovely bride and went to bed early.

Thanks, Simon. With this lot, you never know what folks might think. Wait, of course we know what they think! [:D]
