It is on this week on AMC. This is one of my sons all time favorite Steve McQueen movies, and he said I should recommend it to people to watch, so I said I would. I watched half of it, and what I saw I really liked. I need to finish watching it.
His other favorite McQueen movie is The Magnificent Seven.
AMC has been playing some good movies here lately.

Both of those movies are awesome, Isis. Have y'all seen Papillon? That's another awesome McQueen movie. Dustin Hoffman is in it too.

Oh, Isis... If y'all haven't seen The Sand Pebbles, that's another good McQueen film. Let me know if you want to watch them and I'll get them to you.

OOOH...yes I want them!!! We were in Wal-Mart the other day, and my son said the guy checking out behind us had the Sand Pebbles...and I thought maybe I'd get it for him for Xmas this year.
I would love Papillon...I have looked for it and bid on it, and never have won it yet...I remember it from a long time ago...but, my son has never seen it.

Loved Steve McQueen's motorcycle jump in The Great Escape. That was just awesome right up until he crashed into the second fence.

I saw it many years ago on TV. It's good. A little too long for me, but good.
Did you know the 2000 animated film Chicken Run (with Mel Gibson's voice) mostly parodizes The Great Escape?
