Not sure what made me think of this movie, maybe something I saw here, but we have granddaughters in the house for a few days and I thought it would be a good family movie. I was right. We watched last night. Secondhand Lions was released in 2003, and the primary cast includes Michael Caine, Robert Duvall, and Haley Joel Osment. All are superb, but I’m a big Duvall fan and he owns the role of Hub McCann. Easiest scene to remember is the bar and grill fight when Duvall’s character introduces himself to the young bully with his hand around his throat. You may have forgotten this scene. I think it’s great that 22 years later, both Robert Duvall (94) and Michael Caine (92) are still with us. I recommend that you watch it again, and if kids are around…more’s the better. ETA: It was something I saw here, a post by 911 Boss just a week or so ago. _______________________________________________________ despite them | ||

A great film. _________________________________________________________________________ “A man’s treatment of a dog is no indication of the man’s nature, but his treatment of a cat is. It is the crucial test. None but the humane treat a cat well.” -- Mark Twain, 1902 | |||

One of my wife's favorite movies: Frankie: Hey, who do you think you are, huh? Garth: Just a dumb kid, Hub. Don't kill him. Hub: [to Garth] Right. [grabs Frankie by the throat] Hub: I'm Hub McCann. I've fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses and swords to artillery and tanks. I've seen the headwaters of the Nile, and tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I've won and lost a dozen fortunes, KILLED MANY MEN and loved only one woman with a passion a FLEA like you could never begin to understand. That's who I am. NOW, GO HOME, BOY! | |||
