I never finished watching the Magnificent Seven and had occasions to watch the ending, even during my high school years and just never had the time to finish it especially the last 30 minutes, so what better way to cover up the puke-a-thon from p-Resident Pinochio's BS OTU than watching a classic.
It sucks that Charles bronson, James Coburn and Vaughn kicked the bucket in the end. Yul Brynner and Steve McQueen...when actors were men and now we are stuck with metrosexual pukes like Clooney and Damon who lecture us to be libtards like them. The golden years of Hollywood I tell ya.
Casablanca will be watched on Saturday night. Cant wait. Just saw the preview on Youtube and Ingrid Bergman is damn cute. Bogart, Yul, McQueen. When actors were men unlike metrosexuals of today.
Agreed 100% except that Yul was a big fairy in real life. The most famous hollywood story about him was his adolescent crying on an actress’ shoulder because James Dean had rejected his advances....sorry (but look at the way he minces across the screen in TM7...like a gunfighter in a leotard.
“I was aiming for the horse”
I share a birthday with Steve McQueen.
But, I could never be as cool as him. He is the master, after all.

Non of us can.Mcqueen has stood the test of time and will continue to do so.
You know, I could not understand why Casablanca was always rated so high on critics' list. It was a movie I came in the middle of a half dozen times and it seemed dumb. That is until I finally watched it from the beginning and uninterrupted. It is a classic indeed.
I hope you don't wait until the next Pravda broadcast to see it.
