Deekles,

I haven't even seen the movie yet. Dad will come over one of these days and we'll pop it in.

OK, sorry if I seemed impatient, if there is one thing I am, it is patient (that is a euphamism for LAZY).

I got the impression that your dad would be dropping by with the movie yesterday evening, and my implied urgnecy ("please, pretty please...") was mostly because I KNOW everyone here would have some interest in that particular scene and I just did not want you to forget about it.

By the way... (attention to all EA readers) for all here, there is a scene in the movie "Cross of Iron" that would be of interest to all with penectomy interests and fantasies. The scene is NOT erotic, more like horrific, but I really liked it, the guy who loses his dick definitely deserved it.

The Nazi soldiers led by James Coburn, inhabit a structure with a group of Russkylands finest female army troops. One cruel soldier thinks he is going to force a beautiful blond to give him a blow job. She smiles ever so sweetly and does the act.

He cries, bashes in her skull I think, and says, "I don't want to live like this".

James Coburn comes in and agrees it is, one each. The dead Russian soldier and they get to kill the neo-pee-peeless Nazi.

Nothing graphic. No blood.

When I was a kid, I watched "Green Acres" and thought "Mr. Oliver Douglas" was an increadibly stupid yet increadibly intelligent fellow, somehow I imagined the actor "Eddie Albert" must be like the character he portrayed on the TV. Later, I remember him in the first Disney movie called "Escape to Witch Mountain," there he seemed like a reasonably good guy. Also, during the seventies, I seem to remember a "made for television" movie, I think it was called "Wake me when the war is over," starring Eddie Albert and Zsa Zsa Gabor, funny case of a U.S. war vet fooled into thinking the war with Germany was still going on long after it had ended. Even though the movie "Roman Holliday" was older, I saw that move for the first time only five years ago, and absolutely loved the way he played the photographer who was always getting kicked under the table by Gregory Peck's character, in that movie his character was like the other roles, a nice fellow who gets caught up in some harrowing situations.

NEVER did I know, he really was a brave man. Odd that the Hollywood PR machine did not blast stories of his heroism at us, maybe they did blast those stories but I never heard of his wartime bravery until only recently. I guess the true image of just how brave he had been would not have fit very well with the "nice guy caught up in a nasty situation" image he played on the screen.

Here, on the "HULU" website, is a short documentary, "Return to Tarawa." At 19:20 to 20:20 there is a bit about how he saved the lives of about 70 Marines, all the while facing Japanese machine gun fire.

Eddie Albert lived down the street from me in the 50's.

Hey, it has been almost three months, did your dad ever drop by and watch this with you?

I don't exactly understand why I am afflicted with this irritating habit, but I am definitely afflicted with it... I seem to have to ask other people "what did you think about the movie....?" I am perfectly capable of watching a movie on my own, reading a book on my own, and doing a lot of things alone and all that. But I have for quite some time now, sought the opinions and impressions of others on just about anything and everything, movies, politics, places and people. Maybe I just don't feel my own opinion alone is sufficient and need to hear others validate (or in some cases invalidate) my feelings on some things.

Well, I offer my sincerest apology in advance for being such a damn pest about this movie. Maybe it would be for the best if you just fibbed a bit about it and said "Yeah, yeah, saw the movie, hated it, you are a pervert Deekles for ever watching it in the first place..."

Does anyone know anything about this weird habit of mine? This "need to seek validation for my opinions/feelings/impressions?" I don't really understand the real WHY behind it, but I get a LOT of satisfaction from learning other's opinions of things I and they have done, you know, "shared experiences" and all that. But isn't my OWN opinion enough for me? I guess not.
