Well, what I would love to see happen is JTF taking power in Israel and our movement making a film about it!

Both films are decent.  I like Cast a Giant Shadow better.  It's a shorter film by over an hour, and I'm a Kirk Douglas fan.  The movie also stars Yul Bryner, John Wayne, and Frank Sinatra.

I would love to see a movie based on Leon Uris's "The Haj".

"Exodus" is the best film about Israel.

This is because Sal Mineo, the greaseball Puerto Rican, is cast as a Jew.

Films about Israel are a dime a dozen, but a Jewish Puerto Rican is something special!

Rumor has it that Mineo pulled a switchblade on producer Otto Preminger when Otto told him to "keep his greasy hands" off of Eva Marie Saint.

"Young man!"...said the portly Preminger..."I saw you put some Spanish Fly into Miss Saint's RC Cola!"..."Do you want me to call the police on you?" 

"Aye gon' cut 'chew, Fat Man!"...screamed the deranged Puerto Rican, swinging his stiletto blade wildly at anything with white skin!..."Punta!"..."Punta!"

"You'd better watch it, Macaca!"...said Paul Newman, slinging his drink into the face of the acting extra dressed up like a Bedouin Sheik..."Drink THAT!, You greasy RAT!"

Speaking of films, R.I.P. Roy Scheider, the great actor from Jaws.  I always thought he was Jewish, but I read his eulogy and he wasn't.  Richard Dreyfuss is.  Anyway, Jaws was a great movie, despite Spielberg's later disaster Schindler's List.
