Highly Recommend...hang on to the edge of your seat!
I'm a big John Wayne fan but I've never watched too many of the non-Western variety (although "Hatari!" is one of my absolute favorites). I've liked Katharine Ross since the first time I watched "The Stepford Wives" and like John Wayne, have enjoyed her in everything I've seen her act in. I watched "Hellfighters" a few weeks back and fell in love with it. It's now become one of my favorite John Wayne films.I won't go into detail about the plot because I think that if you haven't had the chance to see the movie yet, it's better when it's a surprise start to finish as it was for me. Suffice it to say that this is a great movie based on real life oil well fire-fighter Red Adair. "Hellfighters" has a bit of everything and most of all of course, The Duke....need I say more?
