Fav Steve McQueen flick
- Thread starter Indiana
- Start date
I think the great escape and that motorcycle stunt represents the best of McQueen. But so many good movies.
McQueen must have boinked 100 times more women than
Newman in his lifetime.
Newman in his lifetime.
“12 Years A Slave” directed by him was pretty good but a car chase would have made it great.
Steve McQueen left us too soon, he was transitioning from movie star to serious actor, he may have had the sort of career that Clint Eastwood enjoyed.
The Oscars can get very weird, The Great Escape wasn't even nominated for Best Film for 1963 yet the white power propaganda film How the West was Won was?!?!

Director William Friedkin offered the role of Popeye Doyle (The French Connection) to Steve McQueen. He turned it down, to him it was too much like Bullitt.
The Mustang GT vs The Charger R/T 440.
Prior to the mid 70's most of McQueen's films were before my time, I didn't see Bullitt till after McQueen had passed. Most people haven't seen it, I love Le Mans.
PN was married to Joanne Woodward for a loooong time. I suspect he could have had as many.
