Any of y'all watch it? Pretty good flick. Based on history.

My dad went into the Navy at 17. He was assigned to a gun boat on that river. He said it was pretty accurate. He got out at age 21 on his birthday November 28, 1941. 2 weeks later Pearl Harbor happened and he we went right back into the Navy.

A great movie from the 1960s, staring Steve McQueen and Richard Attenborough, now known as Sir Richard Attenborough, who has made dozens of films about our planet for the BBC.

Great movie, up there with Preminger's "In Harms Way" for me as long time favorites...
Interesting tidbit - the character Maily that was the focus of Frenchie is acutally Emmanuelle Arsan - the actual "Emmanuelle" for those that are old enough to remeber that book/movie series.
