I found this DVD last month while cleaning out the shack:

Ever fall in love with a photo? This has been obsessing me for a while now. I didn't know much about Lee Van Cleef, so I looked him up and have been unable to find any other pictures of him that turn me on like this one does (or at all for that matter). Which makes it kind of strange that this particular one pushes so many buttons. I think it has a lot to do with the stubble and bushy eyebrows. And the hint of fucked up teeth, and those fierce bedroom eyes... swoon! I just can't resist that steely tough-guy look.
Anyway, Bill said the film is "absolute crap" - he's a stickler for realism in military tales, and apparently on that count this fell on its face within the first five minutes. I skimmed through a few scenes, and it struck me as low-budget, high-camp brain candy, something hard to take with any seriousness.
