Default Re: What have you been watching?

Just watched a 1950's sci-fi called Them starring James Whitmore and James Arness. Both of these guys were WWII veterans. Does anyone know if Arness' brother Peter Graves ("Security" in Stalog 17) served? Also, I've posted this site before and I'm sure many of you have seen it but, for those who haven't..... www.palletmastersworkshop.com/flipside.html
There seems to be some controversy surrounding Charles Bronson's service. Some sites say he was a tail gunner on a bomber in the PTO, others say a nose gunner on a B-29 in the PTO and some say he never left Arizona.
Back to movies.....I sure wouldn't mind seeing Richard Widmark and Gene Tierney in Night and the City again. Widmark plays an ambitious hustler trying to corner the wrestling racket in London. Stanislaus Zbyszko plays Gregorius the Great. I really liked this one!
