I always liked him. He had a real rough and ready look.

My favorite was “The Sand Pebbles”.

Yes to “Sand Pebbles.” Great book and a great movie.

“”My favorite was “The Sand Pebbles”.””

Mine too. This thread surprised me as I’ve read a lot about him and the time he spent having cancer treatment in Mexico and I’ve never heard this before.

Seen them all, of course. A couple of years ago my daughter gave me a retail copy of The Great Escape for Christmas. It’s never lost its appeal.

I remember seeing The Reivers on a date in 1969 at the Rocking Chair Theater on Colonial Drive in Orlando. Back in the days when theaters had smoking sections. LOL.

Sometime watch “Wanted Dead or Alive.” Solid values, honor, morality, in all of the stories. No wonder I fell in love with McQueen when I was a little girl. Had good judgment.
