    Hollywood to remake "The Man Who Never Was" Why I ask? ...

    the original was great with Gloria Graham and Clifton Web.
    Well, I know why, it's because those woke Hollywood Producers
    don't have a single original idea in their heads. Nor have they
    had one for years. Think about all the remakes they've made so
    far - all turkeys..
    Well, I ain't gonna watch it. I have a copy of the original which
    would be hard to beat.

    I seem to recall (vaguely) that the Officers back then knew who he was
    because they got permission to use his body promising he would get an
    honorable burial from the Spanish - which he did.

    Why would HollyWoke care about some minor detail like that?

      hollyweird has no talent any longer,, when it comes to writers

      no originality, no eye for a good film etc,

      but,, the crap they put out appears to make them shloads of money,


      but you gotta wonder, how many versions can you make of Spiderman?

        Lyman nails it. Just junk to feed little kids. Little kids could be eighteen year olds.
        I was bored with the original Star Wars and I was the prime age group. OK, I was thirty something.
        I don't have a clue what the PBS cartoons are about. It's tiny talk for four yr. olds. I'd suggest keeping an eye on that if you speak four year old.
        There are a few good movies out there. Just watched I remember Mama. Who didn't like watching old movies when you were in the barracks t.v. room?

          I don't know! A remake by this title has real possibilities. The Bman spent most of his first year hiding in place in the WH basement while the nation fell apart all around him. A movie by this title could easily be produced by simply looking at what his so far administration has been and what at best it can only become. He never was what demokrats advertised. He never will be. Perhaps a class action suit can be brought by defrauded voters against the demokrats ... bait and switch, etc. Sincerely. bruce.

              You are correct, I have a copy of the original book, and they state exactly what you posted..

                The shame of it is, they used that Ruse to help the landings in Sicily. And as a result had to fight up the mountainous spine of Italy. Why they didn't land in the south of France is beyond me. The worst thing that could have happened is they would have drawn the Germans in France to the south, and then landed behind them on D-Day.

                    Not qualified -- not fat enough and not queer.
