War sucks

Rico says it's why he's drawn to intimate movies of violence like The Professionals, not global ones. But, if you needed any further convincing after watching recent events in Iraq and Afghanistan, watch (as Rico has been today) Paths of Glory, Stanley Kubrick's brilliant movie about the First World War, starring Kirk Douglas (photo), Adolphe Menjou (as the general you'd love to shoot), and a bunch of other stars. (It'll also remind you of why Bill Mauldin said that Europe reserved its best mud for wartime...)
