Lee Marvin's larger-than-life personality and fondness for tipping back the bottle made the actor a raucous but irresistible presence on the set. "Working with Lee Marvin was an unbelievable experience," said Dwayne Hickman. "Never have I met such an outrageous personality. Lee loved to drink, and the more he drank, the more outrageous he became. He had a story about everything and everybody. He also had very definite theories on acting and a style that was all his own. Lee figured if a little bit was good, a lot would be so much better. As a result, each take of a scene was bigger than the last." According to Hickman, Marvin sometimes used alcohol to enhance his performance as the drunken Kid Shelleen. For instance, the very first scene that Marvin shot was the one in which everyone meets Kid Shelleen for the first time, and he is falling down drunk. "He rehearsed several times," said Hickman, "and then went behind the barn and took a shot of vodka to steel himself. I ran into him in front of his dressing room where he had just gotten sick. When I asked if he was all right, he said, in typical Lee Marvin fashion, 'Tension, baby...just a little tension.'"

Crap 1980s TV night on 'Legend' channel:
'Star Trek' 'TNG' - the first series so veers widely in quality from poor to shockingly poor.
'Knight Rider' - you might remember this as being so bad it was good, but you'd be mistaken.
I used to have a girlfriend who was a big fan of it (she liked the talking car) but that probably says more about me than it does about the programme.
'Walker, Texas Ranger' - according to one critic this show has 'acting that makes William Shatner seem like Marlon Brando' It's watchable, just about.
We got this channel as a replacement for 'Forces TV' but it's not a patch on it.
Dunkirk, 1958...

original and best. great cast too.
Sir John Mills was fifty-years-old at the time of filming. The British Expeditionary Force in France in 1940 were a professional army, not conscripts (conscription (the draft) only began after Dunkirk to recoup numbers) therefore, Sir John Mills would be beyond the retirement age for a soldier, and would have been considered too old even for conscription, the maximum age being forty-five. The only soldiers aged fifty or above would have been senior officers, not frontline soldiers, and certainly not Corporals.
