The Human Factor - Day 6


There were a lot of aging Hollywood actors who  went to Italy to make films in the 60s and 70s. Quentin Tarantino captured this trend quite well in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Here we have George Kennedy, heavier and balder, desperately trying to hold onto his. tough guy persona from his youth. He plays an American whose family is killed while they are working in Italy. Kennedy must find the killers and get revenge. It plays like a TV movie, but I’m s sucker for a good revenge film. I was glad to see another aging great actor slumming it here — Sir John Mills.
