Very interesting, thanks MB. Still amazing that I talked to the fellah this is all about. Will be talking to him again today. Hope to see the movie in a better form than the Youtube one I saw. It was pretty hard to tell what actually was happening sometimes, LOL. Got the gist and that was about it.
Say Hi to all. KEITH
If you dont get a copy before long-im mailing you the DvD.

Beautiful. I love Charcoal Art. I cant remember what my LCs have as images--will have to look tonight since I have them dug out to send to the Colonel ;-)) I think all but one still are actual pics--and most are night combat scenes.

To the best of my knowledge, there were five art stills prepared for Pork Chop Hill. These were used for the various poster sizes - one sheet, half sheet, insert and three sheet, as well as appearing in lobby cards and newspaper ads.
The first one is the format for Carl's half sheet.We deal in lead, friend.
If I can figure out how to get all my larger lobbies scanned? id love to add them here. Also, did you know that there were also lobby card-sized stills for thsi movie. I have a couple ;-)) Im wondering if I got them with my LC set--or if you sent them to me? I cant remember--Lord my brain is almost gone.

No problem Carl,
as any thread relating to a real person, or action,
would always be kept separate from the movie thread,
as was the case sometime ago with
The Real Men Sands of Iwo Jima,
and the Documentary
the Battle of MidwayThanks Keith. Ill tell more as I get the time. When he was a 1st Lt, he won his DSC for his actions at Pork Chop Hill.

Ill neeed my thread to be kept seperate from this one--at least for the time being. Ill tell all later--Carl.

Ill be needing a seperate topic about Pork Chop Hill, Gregory Peck--to be kept seperate because-------------------------------------Keith is a miracle worker and greatly helped me yesterday. Our resident miracle worker got me in touch with the the Soldier who Gregory Peck so greatly portrayed in the movie. He was a 1st Lieutenant during Pork Chop Hill--and retired as a Colonel. The great man I am talking about is Joseph G. Clemens himself :-))

I've seen bits and pieces of this movie through the years.
I must admit, I have to BD in a certain mood to be able to watch Gregory Peck. I think he's a fine actor, I'm just weird that way!
If your going to "Cut your teeth" on Gregory Peck movies, Pork Chop Hill and Twelve O'Clock High are two to do it with ;-)) Add Guns of Navarone to the list too.

Speaking of--just enjoyed a small burger here at Dairy Queen.

I think if you look in the "off topic" folder, you'll find most of the films you're looking for. There's a number of folders there, including war movies:
JWMB - The Original John Wayne Message Board! > General Information > Off Topic Discussions > Classic War MoviesHi Alamo--I did look but didnt find it--Keith mentioned below he just created one ;-)) For some reason--some here jsut dont show up on my computer.
