A great book on Patton was “Lucky Forward” by Robert Allen. Patton was a very interesting man.

George C. Scott was born to play Patton... He was also born to play General Buck Turgidson in Dr. Strangelove.

He was a hell of actor and didn't even show up at the Academy Awards to accept his best actor award for Patton. Even back then he knew that the Oscars were a complete joke.
