Actually I liked 12'oclock high for a reason not directly related to airplanes. The opening segway with Dean Jagger from the present into the past and the closing segway returning again to the present are in my opinion some of the finest creative film work ever shot.

(The volleyball scene never fails to get the women worked up...) Man, if there EVER was a case for a guy just taking his shirt off, hitting the damn ball and keeping his mouth shut to attract women it's ole Tom Cruise!! :-)) Dudley |

A "fowpah" is a small, two-wheeled, cartlike utility vehicle pulled by one person, formerly used widely in Tibet. They sound very much alike. :-)) |
