“McQueen film, “The Sand Pebbles” and watched it last night.”

What an outstanding film. Great directing, wonderful cast, and a standout score by Jerry Goldsmith. Plus a beautiful, young Candy Bergen was easy on the eyes :)

Indeed. Also, it’s interesting that its director(Robert Wise) made “The Sound of Music”(another classic but very different type of picture) immediately prior to it.

Here’s a website dedicated to “The Sand Pebbles”:

This is Mad magazine’s funny take on it, called “The Sam Pebbles”:
