Greatest LUTHOR ever. The new Luthor is a pu**y wimp compared to Hackman’s version.
I heard from someone many years ago that he took the role in UNCOMMON VALOR because he had a soft spot for MIA/POW’s in Vietnam, and he knew a lot of friends who lost sons in the war.
I don’t recall the name, but that movie where he gets shot down in Vietnam in enemy territory, then uses the various golf course’s holes to get to safety.
“Okay, every yard is a kilometer. I’m going to play Hole #4 at Augusta first.” Based on a true story iirc.
