He could do comedy too. Remember him playing two different characters in "Cat Ballou"?

quote: ORIGINAL: geofflambert Everybody likes Lee Marvin. Did you bring that up because YouTube fed you a one of him after the Caine bit? I didn't like "The Big Red One" much (the movie with Luke Skywalker in it). It played like a TV movie from that era. The extended scene of him with the boy from the concentration camp was well done though. Yes and no, he came to my mind when u mentioned Midway -> Toshiro was there -> Lee Marvin

oaltinyay -> RE: USS Independence Found (7/11/2015 4:29:03 PM)
Cat Ballou , of course I do with Jane Fonda right ?

oops gonna have to get my brain checked for aluminum deposits.

danlongman -> RE: USS Independence Found (7/11/2015 5:38:30 PM)
I thinks the one that Lee Marvin did with Toshiro Mufune was Hell In The Pacific. I am too lazy right now to practice google-fu. I like Lee Marvin in Raintree County.

geofflambert -> RE: USS Independence Found (7/11/2015 8:42:01 PM)
Yes he was. Purple Heart x3 I think. Pacific.

DD696 -> RE: USS Independence Found (7/11/2015 10:13:41 PM)
Ah, Lee Marvin. Only one purple heart received during the battle for Saipan. A Marine's Marine. He's been gone 28 years now. One of the best - not like the pretty boy actors today.

Lee Marvin was part of a huge lawsuit when I was a kid. His long term SO sued him for a chunk of his wealth when they broke up. That's all I knew him from for a long time. From what I read, he got hit in the sciatic nerve on Saipan and it bothered him the rest of his life. The injury was severe enough he got a medical discharge. Bill

Where some judge came up with the idea you don't have to get married to collect alimony?

Long story short, I grew up using The Duke as my role model. Could be worse [;)] <edit> oops, someone already seems to have caught that

geofflambert -> RE: USS Independence Found (7/14/2015 3:13:27 AM)
I swear I can see JW in that film, I now know otherwise. I saw that at least 10 times. Sheeesh.

Knucles2 -> RE: USS Independence Found (10/2/2015 2:49:19 AM)
Actually it was Robert Mitchum who played Halsey in Midway. The Duke played Rockwell Torey in In Harms Way. Edit: Crap, missed the past three corrections :D

jamesjohns -> RE: USS Independence Found (10/2/2015 2:45:17 PM)
Check out "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" Stars Wayne, Lee Marvin and Woody Strode Excellent movie plays to all the 3 of their abilities Lee Marvin, says a tremendous amount about him and his character, and what the impact of the war was on him, that he select a simple headstone that says PFC US Marine Corp

jamesjohns -> RE: USS Independence Found (10/2/2015 2:51:16 PM)
Lee Marvin did a training film for the Marine Corp, in it sounds like he made 3 landings in WWII. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvgabBoWKPM

barkhorn45 -> RE: USS Independence Found (10/2/2015 3:52:26 PM)
Marvin was also with Wayne in "The Comancheroes"and"Donavon's Reef" I liked"They were Expendable".
