Fly , I am not sure what to make of that.

If it had been Robert Scott or Tex Hill I would have been in there in a flash.


John Wayne,,,,,, hmmmm.
Must say I have the DVD (well I would wouldn't I) and I enjoyed it although its shall we say a little off center!

Fly; I don't agree with Jim; AT ALL (on this one)!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure I'm not the only kid that watched that Film on T.V. when 'Peyton-Place' & suchlike were being screened in the 1960's.

One of his most 'Iconic' portrayals - I think it's a GREAT figure.... (though I'm NOT into figureines)

Those 'Flying-Tiger' (like) 'Jackets' were "all the rage" in London, around 15 - 20 years ago........

Gotta attribute THEIR popularity, to John Wayne.

Only thing about the film that's "naff" for me, is the 'Bomber' & 'T.N.T.' part

Thanks Jim; next time I go on an 'F.M' 'blitz', I'll buy a Chenualt-P.40, & think of you & 'the' Film !!!!!!!!!!

I like it but will wait and hope they do the Duke as LTC. Benjamin Vandervort 2/505 PIR Cmdr from the Longest Day. Then I'm in with both feet.

Don't be daft Shawn, on screen depictions count for nothing. He used to be my hero when I was a kid. Then I discovered the meaning of dialouge and that was the end .of THE DUKE for me.I wouldn't rate him above a can of spam
