Say Hello to My Little Film: Episode 220 - Where Eagles Dare

In pure Ray fashion, he has decided to NOT choose a Halloween themed film for his episode of SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FILM. Instead, he has decided to take Rob back to the 1960s, with the war/spy thriller WHERE EAGLES DARE! Some might call this a Clint Eastwood film, but the day belongs to Richard Burton as Major John Smith, the leader of a group of highly trained British spies who are tasked to drop in behind Nazi lines to save Brigadier General George Carnaby, a chief planner for the Western front. But when members of the team start turning up dead, Major Smith and his American counterpart Morris Schaffer (Clint Eastwood) must power through to complete the mission and uncover a truth that shocks the viewer to their core! Anchored by an second half action sequence whose fingerprints can be seen on many a modern action film, WHERE EAGLES DARE marks a shift in the war genre as the studio system gave way to New Hollywood.  Will the diversion of the holiday theme throw Rob for a loop? Or will the twists and turns of this spy classic be enough to lure him in? Tune in this week to find out!   THEME SONG: Music and Lyrics: Jeremy Catarelli INTERMISSION: Music: Jay You Voice: Jeremy Catarelli
