Firefox starring Clint Eastwood

Produced and directed by Eastwood too. I read the Craig Thomas novel of the same name recently and enjoyed it, the film was based on the book. I think it was a pretty accurate job, not difficult because the story is so good but with films like this there is obviously going to have to be some judicious editing because the narrative in the book can go into a lot more detail. On the whole I thought this was a cracking good film that stands up well to the test of time - it was released in 1982 I believe. Yeah, the models sequences at the end were a bit creaky - but that was the only thing I could criticise this for.
