27. Kagemusha, Ice Cold in Alex, Cockleshell Heroes, The Last Samurai

This week we look at the director without which there would have been none of Yul Brynner, Robert Vaughn, Steve McQueen and Charles Bronson in a Mexican village, C3PO and R2D2 in a Tunisian desert, OR Harrison Ford avec Fedora in many exotic locales. We gaze longingly at the most anticipated pint of lager in the history of film and we blow up a french ship with a Kayak. Welcome to They Don’t make ‘em like they used To.
