Model Forum / General / Models / July 2006Speaking of movies.....
Does anybody know the name of an old wwii desert movies, intro goes like this...... bloke driving in a jeep with a dead buddy in passenger side, Lilli Marlene (in german) on the radio, he hits a certain point changes radio to Radio Allies and there's Lilli again (in english) ... and the movies goes on from there. Just curious really, but if I find the movie will probably beg, borrow, buy , steal etc and have a look.

I saw it years ago on the ABC (pick a day) Night movies. That's back when they actually ran good movies on the networks. It was Micheal Caine's first movie, Battle of Britain's schedule was adjusted a bit to allow him to finish PD first. It's a pretty intense movie, first war movie I recall where everyone was not neccessarily a hero. The ascent of the bluff and the ambush by the Germans of the "official" raiding party stuck in my mind. That and the ending. Couldn't find it for years, it was only released in England that I knew of. Finally found a VHS copy at a show up here couple years back. It's harsh but a good movie. Frank >It was Micheal Caine's > first movie, Battle of Britain's schedule was adjusted a bit to allow him to > finish PD first. Uh, no, Michael Caine had appeared in many movies prior to this. His first role as one of the leads was in 1964's "Zulu", but as the IMDB shows he had played numerous minor roles and bit parts prior to that. Between "Zulu" (1964) and "Play Dirty" (1968) Michael was one of the leads in about half-a-dozen movies, including the three "Harry Palmer" films ("The Ipcress File", "Funeral in Berlin" and "Billion Dollar Brain"), to say nothing of the iconic "Alfie".

You're right. I read that somewhere (prolly on the net) and simply assimilated it as fact. Broke my own rule about trusting the net to much.

Brings to mind a quote; I know it's true, oh so true coz I saw it on TV.. John Fogerty. Rob > >> > Does anybody know the name of an old wwii desert movies, intro goes > >> > like this......

Tak > You shoulda asked last week. It was on US TV. I didn't see the beginning, so I don't know about the jeep episode, but all the other stuff was in there; the attempted rape of the german nurse, winching the vehicles up the hill, the gay arabs stealing watches off the dead, the fuel depot raid, etc. > ----------------- > www.Newsgroup-Binaries.com - *Completion*Retention*Speed* > Access your favorite newsgroups from home or on the road > ----------------- >  SignatureBill In Hamptonburgh, NY To Email, remove the double zeroes after 'at' |
