PICTURE, QUOTE, MOVIE - #88

2.  What movie is this quote from?

Pilla: Colonel, they're shooting at us! Colonel, they're shooting at us! 
McKnight
: Well shoot back!


3.  What movie is this?

 It was the fourth highest grossing film that year.  The film had its genesis from Adrian Cronauer shopping a script for a TV series or made for TV movie.  He was unsuccessful until a big star got wind of the story and decided he wanted to play the main character.  Barry Levinson directed from a script by Mitch Markowitz.  Very little of Cronauer’s script was used.  The movie was shot in Bangkok, Thailand.   The star was nominated for Best Actor and won the Golden Globe for his role.  The film is #100 on AFI’s list of best comedies.

  2. The photo is from Dunkirk. That Spitfire had a better glide ratio than a sailplane. He shot down a Stuka, tooled around for awhile, then made a nice long, gentle landing on the beach. After his engine quit. At about a thousand feet.
