Kelly's Heroes

Clint Eastwood, Telly Savalas, Don Rickles, Carroll O'Connor, Donald Sutherland

This is a great movie. The story and the characters are very entertaining, even
if the movie is 40 years old.

And it has something for everyone. Young Clint Eastwood, to look at.
Telly Savalas as the growling Sargent, Donald Sutherland, the free spirited kook and Don Rickles to work all the angles.

Lots of laughs.

On Her Majesty's Secret Service

George Lazenby, Diana Rigg, Telly Savalas, Gabriele Ferzetti, Ilse Steppat
Let me set the record straight, once and for all. Only George Lazenby could have made this movie work! I'm so sick and tired of reading reviews from critics about how Sean Connery would have made this movie better. Lazenby has usually gotten the short end of the stick, because he had the misfortune of being the first man to succeed Connery in the role of James Bond. Comparisons between the two were inevitable. Critics have been quick to point out how Lazenby lacked the movie star presence and charisma of his predecessor.

Birdman of Alcatraz

Burt Lancaster, Karl Malden, Thelma Ritter, Neville Brand, Betty Field
While Burt Lancaster was recognized as an actor who continually amazed all who worked with him, this film shows, better than any of his others, how versatile and sensitive a performer he truly was. After engaging performances in a variety of films, he took on a truly difficult role of a vicious, convicted killer and made it his own tour-de-force for which he gained an oscar nomination. The part of Robert Stroud would be difficult for any actor and Lancaster, more than any actor of his day, did it with restraint, reserve and panache at all the right moments.
