Ron Howard-the opie,baldie- discuses in the DVD comments from THE DAVINCI CODE the 1st time he went to Paris was he was making a movie in Spain with Charles Martin Smith and he went to Paris on a train.The time frame is about right.
Maybe so but this movie was a stinker. It was a poor version of Cowboys with John Wayne. Lee Marvin was a legend and played legendary roles (i.e. the Major in Dirty Dozen) but as the leader in, ‘The Spike’s Gang’, his performance was just ok. There was nothing believable about this movie nor his role. Would’ve been better as a comedy.
