Having grown up in a military family, I always found much of interest in that movie.

At the time, it was hard and the moving around ALL the time is tough (even if it does have its upside even then) but I wouldn’t trade it in for any other life.

And I am a huge Robert Duvall fan. Love his acting, hands down my favorite actor. The last movie I saw him in was an interesting one “The Apostle”. Funny, I can’t say for some reason if the movie was good or bad (because I am so biased) but I thought about it for a while after I saw it, so there was something to it for me.

From the movie:

Bull talking to Toomer, “How’s it goin’, Sports Fan?”

Toomer was dead in the station wagon ...

Lewis John Carlino, the son of an immigrant Sicilian tailor and a homemaker, was born in Queens on New Year's Day in 1932... In 1951, Carlino enlisted in the Air Force and served for four years during the Korean War.

Ping!

The Great Santini is a wonderful movie, and the great Robert Duvall is magnificent in the lead role.

Duvall used to own a little restaurant out in the countryside in Virginia, near his vast horse farm. One of my friends and I used to go there just so we could stare at his back as he dined sith his wife and friends, as he sat face to the window and back to the room. (Polite Virginians don’t bug the guy for autographs while he’s trying to eat.)
