NM and I both watched The Great Escape for the first time.
John Sturges, you had me at The Magnificent Seven. And thank you, thank you again for a young, shirtless Charles Bronson.
In all seriousness, it was a terrific film. And, having no familiarity whatsoever with the story on which it was based, far more depressing than I was expecting. I don't CARE how up-beat and "you can't keep a good man down!" the music was at the end.
Speaking of the music, Elmer Bernstein, you were AWESOME.
