    The greatest performance Paul Newman ever gave, and an absolute must-see film.

    Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.” - Robert E. Howard

    "Only a rank degenerate would drive 1,500 miles across Texas and not eat a chicken fried steak." - Larry McMurtry

    One of my favorite movies is "Flight of the Phoenix", the Jimmy Steward version. I thought the Hardy Kruger character was the hero in this movie. He is the one that really saved them. He was an ass but that is precisely what it needed in situations like portrayed.

    Heinrich Dorfmann: Gentlemen, I have been examining this aeroplane.
    Frank Towns: Yeah?
    Heinrich Dorfmann: Yes. We've everything we need here to build a new one and fly it out. Now, if you'd like to have a look at my calculations, I don't know whether you can read my handwriting.
    Frank Towns: Are you trying to be funny?
    Heinrich Dorfmann: What did you say?
    Frank Towns: I said, are you trying to be funny?
    Heinrich Dorfmann: That is precisely the reaction I would have expected from a man of your obvious limitations.
