But I swear, when he goes supersonic on the deck to avoid radar & the MiG is stripping the snow off of trees, this is the only time I ever saw Clint Eastwood smile.
“Let’s see what this thing can do.”
“Boy, is this a machine!”
Equaled only by Dirty Harry’s disgust: “Nobody, I mean NOBODY, puts catchup on a hot dog!”
A GREAT MOVIE...and a good book. Movie was better than the book. IIRC, it is based on a real story.
