The Hustler with Jackie Gleason and Paul Newman. It's a drama movie that got good reviews. Introduced me to shooting pool where I misspent some of my youth.

My favorite movie with Matthau is probably "A Face in the Crowd" but Andy Griffith is the star in that one. With Matthau as the star I like "Charley Varrick".

Early this morning I watched "Blood Simple". Of the Coen Bros. movies I've seen, I'd rank it just behind "Fargo".

All good WWII pics.

Loved Von Ryan’s Express.

How about Run Silent, Run Deep?

Patton and The Longest Day are two classics that you might appreciate.

For war movies, I have to add

The Big Red One
Pork Chop Hill (although Korean War)
Das Boot (might be too claustrophobic to watch while in quarantine)
A Midnight Clear
Fury (surprised how much I liked this, but I like tanks)
When Trumpets Fade
Letters from Iwo Jima
