'The Great Escape' was terrific but the movie is 'The Magnificent Seven'
with Yul Brynner, Robert Wagner, Eli Wallach, James Coburn, Charles Bronson
and...damn.  Help me here Loren.


That motorcycle scene burned deep into many a teenage boy's retina, mine
included.
'The Magnificent Seven', 'The Great Escape', 'The Thomas Crown Affair',
'Bullitt', 'Le Mans'...quite a body of work.  And of course, 'Any Given
Sunday' which was so personal to him.
