The Dirty Dozen is one of the most immoral movies ever made; and the major irony of the film is usually overlooked by almost all viewers-probably because Altman himself did not consciously realize it: Major Reisman is the greatest (war) criminal of all.

Check out Lee Marvin In "Prime Cut." He plays a Chicago enforcer sent to Kansas City to collect money from Gene Hackman. True badass. (Except for the white shoes) Marvin has a great scene at a county fair where he bitch slaps Hackman over the money that is owed. Also the ending seems to be the inspiration for the ending of "Unforgiven" with Hackman and Clint Eastwood.

It's good for insomniac people to finally get a solid nights worth of sleep. Ten minutes (or more, I dozed for a bit so I don't really know how much longer past ten) worth of film to show you how "real" it was to wait for a train to be robbed. Ten minutes of people sitting by a tree….. Getting up and walking to another tree and sitting…. Glaring….. Gabbing stupid junk….. Getting up and walking to another tree and sitting…. Glaring…..
………..
That's the beginning of this snore fest! It only gets more listless as the minutes crawl by to a worthless ending.

Don't forget Charles Bronson, as mentioned in the article.

Never better than in The Dirty Dozen and Once Upon A Time In The West.

"Yep, he missed the barn!"

You just can't beat the scene of him on the horse drunk up against the wall.

If i remember the story right, Marvin saved a man who has been shot up, carried him right off the field and that man we would all know later as Mr. Rogers. The reason Rogers didnt wear short sleeves on the show was because of his battle scars. His was a quiet macho, Marvins was very macho visually.

Actually "Big Red One" is one of the best war movies ever made in the States without the Hollywood BS. The scene on Omaha Beach where Marvin is yelling for #1 to set the bangalore torpedo. Then #2. Then #3. Then #4. And every one gets shot down. THAT is what real war was like.

And I want to see this movie, even if it is not Award worthy it is always nice to see Nazis getting killed. In this age of the O-Won, seeing bad guys trounced is nice.
