The woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep. And miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep. Remember. Miles to go before I sleep.

Interesting it had another name, must have been a marketing thing. It was called 'Race for the Yankee Zephyr' in New Zealand.
The Dak in question was an ex-RNZAF machine, NZ3518, still airworthy when they put her in the lake for the film!

That reminds of an old joke...how do you make a million dollars in Hollywood? You start with 4 million dollars and pray like hell!
An all time favourite for me The Horse Soldiers John Wayne

I'd say the quote which best describes Hollywood is the one stated by Paul Beeston, former Toronto Blue Jays executive:
"Anyone who quotes profits of a baseball club is missing the point. Under generally accepted accounting principles, I can turn a $4 million profit into a $2 million loss and I could get every national accounting firm to agree with me."
Hollywood accounting, just like professional sports accounting, is notoriously shady.
Well worth the watch if you haven't. Here is a trailer to give you an idea of it:

Just got done with my trifecta: Patton, Battle of Britain, & Tora, Tora, Tora. Every now and again I get that urge. Next I'm thinking Longest Day, In Harm's Way, Sea Bees (a Duke trifecta)

Peter O'Toole is one of mine as well. His skills have always some through films like Lawrence of Arabia (once of my favorite of his), Cromwell, even his comedies like High Spirits, King Ralph & My Favorite Year.
