Couldn’t believe my eyes when I first saw it as a teenager in the 70’s. I couldn’t figure out what a hippie was doing in a WW2 movie but Sutherland played it magnificently. It is in my opinion his signature role right up there along with Klute and ordinary people.
They showed "Kelly's Heroes" here in the UK just a couple of weeks ago & before the sad announcement of DS's passing. Even though I'd seen it many times before I still enjoyed watching it again. RIP Donald.
We would like to offer our condolences to Donald's family and friends. No negative waves with Donald just fun and laughter. We will miss you. ❤ Mark and Ruth
What I really liked about Oddball & his crew was, that despite them being a bunch of crazy, anarchist hippies, they're actually pretty competent at what they do. Like when they attack that German train station, they put on their ''game face'' and go to town on those Germans. RIP Donald Sutherland.
Yep, think I'll dig out the old DVD and watch it tonight. Loved this movie since I saw it on TV in 72, I think. Love ya Oddball, rest in peace, but you will live forever.
Out of this world !!! Kelly's Heros my favorite funny war film, together with all the cast ! We thank him and every one of them as well ! for the great times in cinema this truly great actor gave us , he will always have a special place in our harts, " woof - woof " ❤❤❤
There aren't many movies I can recall with Clint Eastwood of all actors in it, where he's overshadowed. Donald stole the show in Kelly's hero's and then some! The movie would simply not be what it is, nor half as popular, without him. The whole idea of a bunch of hippies as a WW2 tank crew is completely outrageous, but somehow it just works, that's thanks I think to Donald just running with it and making the role his own. I for the life of me can't think of any other actor at the time that could have pulled it off anywhere near as well. It's without doubt one of my favourite movies of all time, due to Oddball NEVER failing to make me smile every time he appears on screen. Bit of stunning movie fact for you: During filming, Donald contracted spinal meningitis exacerbated by a lack of antibiotics which caused him to go into a life-threatening coma, but he managed to recover and complete filming!!
RIP Oddball. This is the movie that introduced you to me, and I've been a fan ever since. This movie was also the first one that I learned all those great quote including, (and I've used it often), don't hit me with those negative waves so early in the morning.
There's an important line missing from the segment about Oddball's tank --- I'm paraphrasing, but Oddball says that the last time the tank was overhauled, they somehow managed to put the transmission in *backwards* (huh???), meaning they only had one forward gear (which should have been reverse) but had, correspondingly, *six* gears in *reverse* :))! That's the full explanation for Oddball's subsequent line about "we like to think this allows us to get *out* of trouble a Hell of a lot faster than we got *in* to it"! Makes sense to me LOL!
You gotta read the stories about Southerlnd and Eastwood during the filming of Kelly's heroes. Southerland nailed the goofy oddball character down from personal experience. His wife at the time was a trip. Great story. The vision of badass, eastwood, cracking up with laughter is aweosme.
Did you know that Kelly's Heroes was filmed in Yugoslavia? And also, believe it or not, the tank scene when tanks are coming out of the tunnel was filmed on mountain Fruška Gora, which is near the city of Novi Sad (today's Serbia). Also believe it or not, the Sherman tank that was using Donald Sutherland is in Museum of Vojvodina in city of Novi Sad. Počivaj u miru Donalde Saterlende, legendo. Rest in peace Donald Sutherland, legend.
All of these scenes are great! I bought "Kellys's Heroes" on DVD 20 years ago and watched it 10 times in one week. It was mainly for the Donald Sutherland scenes. I really love the one with "I only ride'em I dont know what makes'em work!"
@mikeoyler2983 I have nearly worn out my DVD with kellys heroes on one side, dirty dozen on the o t her, if that is possible. Donald Sutherland is one of the 20th century greatest!
I think Oddball was one of the greatest, if not the greatest war movie characters of all time; everything about him was just absolutely brilliant. The things he came out with and just the way he did things aswell. I would have loved to have been on that movie set watching the likes of Clint Eastwood cracking up laughing at him. Rest in peace Donald Sutherland, love to his family and friends 🙏 xxx Woof woof woof woof!!!!
Donald Sutherland has made a lasting impression on me as a boy growing up in Hong Kong watching this movie in cinema widescope stereo with Chinese subtitle.
All the best to the Sutherland family. Yes. He will be missed. King genius. Made some very important films. Love this character. “Always with the negative waves.”
Farewell, Donald. One of Canada’s greatest gifts to the field of acting. They don’t make them like him anymore. One of a kind. He had one of the greatest voice-over voices. He did so many commercials for Florida orange juice producers. His voice just had a unique quality about it. RIP, Donald. Peace to Kiefer and family in this time of mourning.
A fantastic actor! And to think, he was never even once nominated for Academy Award! If that's not a negative wave, I'd sure like to know what is. Rest in peace, Oddball.
@@Matt-uj6jm 👍 referring to Oddball’s positive response to Moriarty’s negative waves. “Why don’t you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?” A classic comedy isn’t it.
Donald Sutherland was gloriously unhinged in this excellent movie. An early wave of over the top performers like Christopher Walken and Jim Carrey. Drama turned up to 11.
From David A. Wood: The 1970 War Movies "Kelly's Heroes" and "MASH" were indeed, to me anyway, the two quintessential Donald Sutherland movies. In "Kelly's Heroes," at first glance Sutherland's obviously flaky, World War Two US Army Tank Commander Oddball seems to be the epitome of a "100% F**kup," yet when it crucially comes down to cases Oddball, along with his faithful, and also seemingly more levelheaded, Sherman Tank driver/mechanic Moriarity (Deservedly Celebrated Character Actor Gavin MacLeod) and the rest of his men, is, paradoxically speaking, an amazingly competent and steady-minded leader of soldiers whenever he is suddenly thrust into a undesirable combat situation. Hell, if my humble opinion does not suffice as proof, just ask the sizable German Army detachment that were surprisingly met by Oddball, Moriarity, and the rest of Oddball's tankers at the French Railroad Station in "Kelly's Heroes." Oh yeah! That's right, you can't ask the German soldiers that Oddball surprised at said Railroad Station about Oddball's intentionally hidden, soldierly competence, or anything else at all for that matter, because Oddball skillfully directed his astonishingly aggressive tankers to kill "the living s**t" out all of them while they (Oddball's guys) afterwards heroically rode through the immensely devastated remnants of the once German-held railroad station in their modified M-4 Sherman tanks to the grimly sardonic music of the historical Americana Work Song, "I've Been Working on the Railroad" as the rustic song was casually blasted away from the three Sherman tanks' attached loudspeakers! As for Sutherland's other seminal 1970 War Movie, "MASH," Korean War Combat Surgeon "Hawkeye" Pierce is a moderately eccentric and humorously droll man, definitely unlike the later Alan Alda TV version of "Hawkeye" Pierce who was more theatrically "Over the Top" in the Humor and occasional Drama Departments, who is so personally unruffled by what is going around him that he, in his personally subdued way, cannot ever be bothered to take anything at all seriously, especially those entirely bothersome, wartime US Army regulations that he, like everyone else in the US Army, is expected to reflexively obey without question. Yet, in spite of those seemingly impassable and normally intolerable faults Sutherland's Hawkeye, along with his two fun-loving BFFs/fellow MASH surgeons, the emotionally congenial and effusively talkative Southerner Duke Forrest (Tom Skerritt) and the more flamboyantly humorous and verbally loquacious "Trapper John" McIntyre (Elliot Gould), is so totally competent at his job of being a MASH Surgeon that he was appointed as the Head Surgeon for his MASH outfit by his commanding officer, Lt. Colonel Henry Blake! These two movies, which were two of my favorites as an intellectually eager child who was born and raised in Dayton, Ohio and still are two of my favorites as I am currently a middle-aged adult quietly residing in Kettering, Ohio, introduced me to the socially engaging and cinematically wondrous Canadian-born actor from Halifax, Nova Scotia and I must proudly exclaim that I am personally grateful for having had the blessed experience of watching the charismatic Donald Sutherland in action while he was in his many movies! RIP, Mr. Sutherland! Nuff Said and Peace Out from Kettering, Ohio, everybody. ☮️ 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 😃 👋 ✌️ 👍
I don’t know about y’all but I consider Donald Sutherland to be one of premier actors in history. The guy is a chameleon, he can be any role. And ya gotta love him when he does the “bad guy”. RIP Don. 👍
KH's one of my favourite films. I always remember it for Odd Ball. Absolute perfect casting and in my eyes Donald's best performance even though he was great in many others. "Don't Look Now" the most common choice by so called experts. The ending with the tiger rolling down the street with the driver's expression absolute perfection.
I was thinking when DS died the other day, how these great great actors and movies from back then, it's just unfair that they even have to age. I will always think of him as this character along with many others he did. I loved him in "The eye of the needle" where he played an Irish spy who hated the english in world war two. Plus, it has Jenny Agutter in it, which isn't a bad thing.
The first movies I saw in cinema were 'Viva la revolution' and 'Kelly's Heroes' , I'm not sure which one was first. But I remember Kelly's Heroes best. Great movie, great actors. And Donald remained one of my favorites.
It's hard to imagine Donald Sutherland wasn't really Oddball. And everything else was just Acting. What an all time classic character. What an all time classic actor.
When they are getting out of the truck in the dirty dozen it was filmed at RAF Hendon where the air museum is. I was based there for sometime and heard all about it.
The scene where Oddball is trying to get a bridge is one of my favourites; "I'm telephoning you from a cafe in a little town about 10 miles South of Missouri and I'm wondering if you could do me a favor?" 'Missouri? Say, I got a map around here someplace that says we haven't even captured that place already.' "Yes, so I heard. But everyone seems very friendly."
One of my all-time favourite movie characters. A hippy 20 odd years before such a thing existed. And it's perfect. Also, it just struck me just how much like UA-camr Steve 1989 he looks. Not bad.
"Don't hit me with negative waves so early in the morning, man!" "Why can't you say what a beautiful day it is" "Odd ball, this tank leaks. I don't have the tools to fix it, and that won't change, no matter how positive I think!"
RIP. First role I really remember Donald Sutherland in. Everybody knows who kelly is. Everybody also know who Oddball is. But what was the name of Telly Savalas role ? Donald Sutherland made everybody remember Oddball
RIP Donald Sutherland - Woof Woof
That's my OTHER dog imitation.
Could not have put it better..
No negative waves, Moriarty...😂
Woof woof woof!
Woof Woof, time to drink wine, eat cheese, and catch some rays.
Kelly's Heroes was right there at the top of the list
It sure is! A firm favourite of mine!

Kelly's Heroes is shown on tv in Britain way more than any of his other movies. Love it.
One of the best movies EVER!!! Donald was an icon. Great actor. RIP

That's a great point, he comes through in the end, no matter how nutty he was
I am genuinely gutted at the news of his passing. This is my all time favourite film, mainly due to his zany character. 😢
Dude hope your catching some rays, drinking some wine... RIP Baby.
Great words!
Eating cheese!
Loud music and painting "pretty pictures".
Positive waves!
To a new yorker like you a hero is some kind of weird sandwich 😂😂😂 The best line in a film ever . Rip oddball
It might be my personal favourite line! Superb delivery 🤣
“Not some nut who takes on 3 tigers…”
@generalmassive1907 one of the best lines ever in cinema!
Yep, think I'll dig out the old DVD and watch it tonight. Loved this movie since I saw it on TV in 72, I think. Love ya Oddball, rest in peace, but you will live forever.
Donald Sutherland will be Oddball forever!
The perfect character!
So many positive waves.

No negative waves,man.
Just good thoughts.
RIP.

One of the great movies.
Ainever heard of it!
There is no way to do it better than Mr. Oddball.
Best movie ever!👍👍👍
Out of this world !!! Kelly's Heros my favorite funny war film, together with all the cast ! We thank him and every one of them as well ! for the great times in cinema this truly great actor gave us , he will always have a special place in our harts, " woof - woof " ❤❤❤
The dirty dozen portrayal of Pinkley helped secure the MASH role for Donald, and the rest as they say, is history
"They're very pretty, Colonel. Very pretty. But can they fight?"
“I hope you’re right!”
Donald Sutherland OWNED this part and is easily the most endearing character. Brilliant performance.
While Clint Eastwood always shows his "Dirty Harry" look, Donald has so many different faces in all his movies. RIP you won' be forgotten.
Apparently, an Italian director of Spaghetti Westerns said that Clint Eastwood has had two expressions: with the hat, and without the hat! 😆
Kelly's Heroes was the best WW2 movie made. The cast was loaded with icons with very memorable lines.
“Always with the negative waves” … love Kelly’s Heroes…
One of my favorite movies. And the fist time I had seen Donald Sutherland in anything. He stole every scene he was in. RIP to one of the greats.
@davidcox3076 "you might need some armor!"

@@lyndoncmp5751 Yep, I'd go with that :)
