Although it wasnt particularly liked by critics at the time it went on to be rated one of the best ever films(which i would concur) it was released in a Paris cinema and ran for 2 years consecutively, almost driving the projectionist mad.
Great film, best film any of those four were in. Although '12 Angry Men' is great too.
Fonda was in a few goodies tbf. grapes of wrath, mr roberts, the wrong man, darling clementine etc.Quote:

He did Chato's Land which i liked. Typical Winner violence but it was a decent attempt at revisionism
Yeah that's watchable for a Winner film.

The recent Criterion release which was restored by the Lucas foundation.
I Start Counting, 1970. Directed by David Greene and starring Jenny Agutter and Bryan Marshall. This is the BFI version of the film on Bluray disc. Its a better picture and has a good 1 channel monoural audio track. Colour has had a slight shift too which helps.
Fabulous film.

Starring John Mills, Lionel Jeffries and Eric Portman and directed by Guy Hamilton.
The film did well here in UK and was 4th best visited in the year, but like most British films of this type, flopped in the USA.
