Maybe the best movie about Mercenaries.....I know everyone loves The Wild Geese, but I'm sticking to The Dogs of War.
My father took me to this movie after a typical Saturday afternoon running around New Rochelle...hitting the American Legion and the sandwich shop The Yellow Submarine....then off to Proctors RKO Theater on Main Street.....ahhhh I miss that movie theater.
here is a old picture...

Im going to open two tabs - one for your blog and one for netflix and start adding...thnx
what about the longest day or a bridge too far????
ps: do you ever post on the family blog anymore????
well Chris....i will post on the family blog when i have something (family) to post.
....this blog is just a kind of a running list of what i am currently doing or thinkin or whatever
Im not the biggest The Longest Day fan.....
Now "A Bridge Too Far" is a whole nother story......best scene in that movie is when Robert Redford is crossing the river screaming
"Hail Mary! Jesus Christ!"...while everyone around him is dieing.
it made a impression on my small brain when I first saw it...HBO I believe...
Wasn't our dentist office right next door to the theater. The old pictures on the other blog made me think of Aunt Bridie and the last time I saw her was right near this theater. I, also, remember going to eat with Grandma too but I think it was a Woolworths (the diner in the back of the store). Thanks for bringing back some good memories. (okay...the dentist is not one of them)
Yeah...that dentist was shitty....the office was by the "Town" movie theater...now a wicker store...i will scan a current pictures of all New Rochelle old theaters soon
Got any pics of the movie theater that was in Scarsdale near your apartment?
