Those are two that have been missed so far. They are both worth watching.


A Bridge Too Far was an excellent movie. Unfortunately it shows how “Monty” and the British Generals totally screwed up a military operation based upon their own hubris and narcissism. Too many allied soldiers died in that futile attempt. Another reason why Patton was not too fond of “Monty”.


Yeah Patton wasn't narcissistic ...


Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
