Re: For Who'm The Bells Tolls
 

One of my personal favorite movies, Ian. IMO, this genre does not suit Burt Lancaster's acting style very well, but he is magnificent in this one. His portrayal of Archie McIntosh -- the head Army scout who really did exist -- is wonderful and his death scene is my favorite one in movies: to me not at all melodramatic, maudlin or overacted. The movie itself is based on an actual (incredible) event during the Apache Wars period in Arizona/New Mexico. In general, it hews fairly close to historical accuracy and IMO is the best of all the Apache Wars movies.

An excellent historical account is at:
