  • Sadly Donald Sutherland passed away last night.
    So, I thought that I’d compile some of my favourite clips from Kelly’s Heroes and The Dirty Dozen, sit back, drink eat some cheese, drink some wine, catch some rays and enjoy.

      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.

    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.

    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!!
