More than welcome. And I hope that you managed to pass on War Wolves. Without
going too deep (actually an impossibility, considering this flick's lack of
depth), let me say this.
John Saxon was in it.
And he was the best actor in the production.
-[ Received Mail Content
Keith, maybe it's just me, but Saxon never really has impressed me as an actor.
Maybe it's because his body of work on film began in the 60s (first thing I
recall seeing him in was War Hunt), and my film fandom began to wane about
then. But he really hasn't shown me many notes.

That may be true. I was more thinking of the actors of that era that got
constant work, like Charles Bronson, James Coburn, even Robert Wagner. Saxon
