A two hours and forty


history channel documentaries A two hours and forty five minutes in length WW2 exemplary a la GUNS OF NAVARON (1961). Go and lease the DVD immediately on the off chance that you like these sort of motion pictures despite everything you haven't seen it.

"Clash of the Bulge" is the way they used to shoot those uber epic WW2 great against-abhorrence and us-against-Nazis sort movies in which you had either Robert Ryan or Robert Mitchum featuring in light of the fact that, other than their extraordinary acting ability, they had the best squint, frown and scowl in the business... until, that is, Clint.

It comes finish with an INTERLUDE (2 minutes of energizing music while you watch a settled realistic) and an INTERMISSION after the initial 1:45 minutes...

Film TRIVIA SIDE BAR: For the individuals who are excessively youthful, making it impossible to recollect, lets run together down the world of fond memories... Quite a long time ago when film duplicate was expensive to the point that film rolls were shared by different motion picture theaters. Alternately, infrequently the same person happened to claim a pack of motion picture theaters inside the same town.

All films came in two reels - Reel 1 and Reel 2. After the Reel 1 was done in one theater, while the great people smoke their cigarettes (yes!) and making the most of their cool refreshments amid the INTERMISSION, a dispatch hurried the Reel 1 to the next theater on a cruiser, got Reel 2 and destroyed back to the main theater, without a moment to spare to get the end of the INTERMISSION.

I recollect in some cases simply staying there eating and drinking for 60 minutes and sitting tight for the second half to start in light of the fact that the poor messenger would get stuck in movement some place :- ))

That was the capacity of the INTERMISSION back in those great old awful past times and you'd see an INTERMISSION in the vast majority of the wordy motion pictures shot (I'd say) before the '70s...
