What a great Movie


i Love this movie, i saw it in the cinema back in 1984 when i was 16, have been looking for it for years now and managed to get it from youtube but i want to be able to get dvd, i know it will be many years before its on Blu ray if it ever is released, what i can't understand is the lack of interest in it, Gere, Hoskins and Caine, great actors and hardly even any posts on this forum.
I suppose there isn't much interest in political or films that make you think, i loved the days when we had movies like The Killing Fields, Salvador, Missing (Jack lemmon 1982), Platoon, Midnight Express and lots more, these films seem not to be made these days, last one close to those was Munich (2005), maybe its the world climate we are in, post 9/11 or maybe we just like to go to the Cinema and not use our brains at all, Please make films like these again and let people think.

RIP Bob Hoskins who played the Latino Colonel.

to call it a great movie is a bit of a stretch but its a good time capsule of who was big in Hollywood in 1983
