I guess one of David Lean’s other classic movies “Bridge over the River Kwai” must go too.

And a foretaste of what life will be like if today’s radical liberals gain complete control.

So the Arab women doing their tongue twirling whatever they call it sound as Lawrence and the Arabs send out for Aqaba did not do it for you?

One of my favorite movies!

That being said, it is about moslems, who are notoriously misogynistic, and that sets up a cognitive dissonance loop in liberals.

Human beings are sexist. And it is a good thing. Treating men like men and women like women has served me very well in pretty much every thing I do.

One of the readers was rude enough to remind the snowflakes that Anne V. Coates won an Oscar for being the editor of the movie. This is she:

The folks who were complaining about the movie must be a bunch of intolerant homophobes.

Also sexist: Apollo 13. The director didn’t have any women on the spaceship.

Every thing in its context. Watch a DVD of the Bob Newhart show sometime. They way Bob treated his wife Emily is shocking today. He belittles her intelligence and doesn’t hesitate to bark out orders. But that was then. Nowadays it’s the white guy who’s the brunt of the jokes and criticism. I guess we have it coming...

I read somewhere that the Flight of the Phoenix was the only movie made up until that time with an all-male cast. Can’t think of any since.

These are the same people or their offspring that revolted in the sixties for freedom of expression.

Funny thing about that movie is they were heading to Benghazi when the plane crashed.

Were there any women in Bridge Over The River Kwai?
Stalag 17?
The Great Escape?

I honestly don’t know the answers, as it has been a while since i have seen these movies.

Let’s not even get started on “I Love Lucy”. “Father Knows Best”? Hang that producer from the highest tree, and if he’s already dead, dig him up!
