Posts from Dooley in thread „Von Ryan's Express (1965)“

    One of my favorites as well. Back in '65 I wrote a fan letter to the attention of Frank Sinatra at 20th Century Fox. Some publicist sent me a pressbook and 50 press stills. Still got them, Ringo.

    Cool story, I'm green over here :wink_smile:
    I clearly remember first seeing this all on my own on a Saturday afternoon as a kid, folks must have locked me in with the TV to keep me quiet lol, and it's remained one of my faves to this day.


    Goldsmith is my favourite film composer, I don't feel anyone can touch him with his breadth of musical styles.
