If you want some more, watch "Bring me the Head of Alfredo Garcia". A highly underrated film. The Wild Bunch was his best though. It doesn't get any better than the final scenes. I'm surprised Duke never did a picture with him.

Heh, I rented “Garcia...” about a week after I saw the Wild Bunch. I thought it was a very good film, though Wild Bunch was the better of the two, IMHO. It doesn’t hurt that I’m a huge fan of Bill Holden and Ernie Borgnine, of course. :-)

I also saw “The Getaway” recently, with McQueen and Ali McGraw. I thought it was okay, but not all that great. Poor Jack Dodson! (aka Howard Sprague of Mayberry).
