Just passing on some info on some great movies. Papillon is my second-favorite McQueen film, after The Sand Pebbles.
BTW, for Kubrick fans: A Clockwork Orange is coming on TCM in about an hour.

Paths of Glory is my favorite Kubrick film.

Stock up on blank VHS tapes!

I like McQueen, but cannot watch, no TV. I am Late for the sky and do not miss it. Watching anything is dead time, but it is all about priorities. Just a thought.......

Cool.
I like Wanted Dead or Alive. But that’s an old TV series.

Paths of Glory is my favorite Kubrick film.Dr Strangelove for me, but Paths of Glory is a close second.

As Hilts in
The Great Escape, his best role, even though he was Oscar-nominated for
The Sand Pebbles.Bullitt is actually a pretty slow police procedural except for the car chase. And of course a young smoking-hot Jacqueline Bisset (whom I once had the pleasure of meeting at Harrod's ...).

If you happen to get the Western Channel, they show Wanted Dead or Alive every evening. Sad when you would rather watch shows over 60 years old more than the crap from today. We watch Wagon Train and WDOA, Cheyenne, etc. Sad state of affairs.

I love all those old westerns. I have Wanted Dead or Alive on DVD. I may have Wagon Train somewhere. I have a lot of Bonanza and Gunsmoke.

If they remade WDOA today, they’d probably star a crippled, black, lesbian dwarf as the lead. But she wouldn’t use guns to subdue the baddies...she’d read them the feminist manifesto, and they’d all admit to being sexist, racist pigs who deserved prison.

I love all those old westerns. I have Wanted Dead or Alive on DVD. I may have Wagon Train somewhere. I have a lot of Bonanza and Gunsmoke.I don't have the Westerns channel anymore, but I have bought several of those shows on DVD. I do have the complete Wanted: Dead or Alive (very cheap on DVD). Also, season one of Gunsmoke. I only like the half-hour episodes when Matt Dillon was a badass. I have a couple of seasons of Wyatt Earp and all of Tombstone Territory as well. I recently picked up the entire series of Have Gun-Will Travel on an Amazon.ca deal. that one may be my be my favorite of the bunch. The Equalizer is basically a modern knock-off of Paladin.
