First seen as a child


When I was very young my grand parents were the only people we knew who had cable service with a movie channel and we would go visit on weekends. My dad was all excited before one visit and said we were going to be watching a movie called The Wild Geese! My mother judged it by the title and thought it was a Disney movie or something, so we all sat down to watch and needless to say after the Concord hostage scene my dad and I were left to watch it alone. I have loved this film since that moment. I know when it was made and even to this day it is somewhat controversial because of its political incorrectness, but it’s one hell of a film with a great cast and ending. Famous Congo mercenary Mike Hoare was the technical advisor and it really shows. I just wanted to see if there are any other lovers of this little talked about film on this board.
