Flick Pick: Kelly's Heroes

Kelly's Heroes
(MGM, 1970)

All-time great heist caper set amidst WWII in France with Clint Eastwood before he was Dirty Harry, along with Telly Savalas, Don Rickles, and Donald Sutherland as the hippest tank commander ever.

Also responsible for contributing the phrase "You know, a deal deal" to my personal vocabulary.

It was a great part for Rickles, a lot of it ad-libbed.

My brother, the former tank commander, spent most of his Army career delivering Oddball's lines on the tank intercom.
