Posts from chester7777 in thread „Reunion In France (1942)“

When Keith first posted this thread, we had never seen it. It was included in one of the boxed sets we acquired in the past year, so we watched it. It was weird not seeing Duke for almost 40 minutes into the film.

Anyway, I realized I hadn't shared any new posters recently, so thought I'd get some more up. It's a rainy day and I'm not selling hot dogs this afternoon, so I've got a little time on my hands to catch up.

The images of posters I am sharing are from Les Adams, and are being shared with his permission.

I actually forgot that I was watching a JW movie until he popped out of the doorway well into the film.

An interesting comment, " until he popped out of the doorway"
as that was the same "feeling" I had.

Our first viewing of Reunion in France - I must say that this is the first "John Wayne movie" that we had to watch for at least 30 minutes before JW's first appearance! Our son said, This wasn't really a John Wayne movie, it was a movie that had John Wayne in it - a little."

The plot certainly had a circuitous route, but a satisfying ending. I don't want to say much more, lest I ruin it for those who have not seen it yet.

In general, we enjoyed watching it.

Thank goodness for The John Wayne Film Collection, which we just purchased in the past couple of months. This film was included in the set of six.

Well, we haven't viewed this movie yet, but see that Amazon has it available in VHS, starting at $14.50 for "used and new."

I suspect this might come out on DVD so I think I'd wait before spending almost $20 (including shipping). It is currently available on eBay, for a more reasonable price (so far, anyway . . . there's no telling how high bids can go), so that is a good source as well.
