More matinees; War time now with The Guns Of Navarone, 1961. directed by J. Lee Thompson, and stars Gregory Peck, David Niven and Anthony Quinn, along with Stanley Baker and Anthony Quayle. James Robertson Justice has a part too and also narrates the opening sequence.

This did well at box office making a not inconsiderable $18m profit. It won an Academy Award for Special Effects..
The score was composed by Dimitri Tiomkin
Where would Saturday be without a western... John Ford's "Fort Apache", 1948. This was the first of the director's "cavalry trilogy".
John Wayne, Henry Fonda, Ward Bond, Victor McLaglen and Shirley Temple star.
