Saw this so many years ago now but the music has stayed with me all these years. Great soundtrack, unusual setting of a train competition but based on a standard underdog story format. One of the most unique stage settings I've seen, then or since, as it wrapped around the balcony so the cast was coming around into the audience at various points. Really wish it was still running in the UK, I'd love to see it again!

Kirk Bage (1775 KP) rated Lonely are the Brave (1962) in Movies

Two years on and Douglas has returned to the safety of westerns, looking older and gaunt, if no less charismatic. Something had cooled in him since Spartacus, and approaching 50 years of age, you can see the maturity and heart-ache most evidently in this performance. The tough guy remains, but there is a wistful aspect to Jack Burns that was not there before. He utilised the writing talents of one Douglas Trumbo to convey a “sadistic harshness” he called “the most perfect script I ever read”. Reportedly, in later years, Douglas considered this his best work, and son Michael (who you may have heard of) has also said this was his favourite amongst his father’s prestigious oeuvre. In that context alone, it is worth watching again.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Amazon Music in Apps
Sep 7, 2019
This app is completely irritating. Years ago, I used to purchase all of my music through Amazon. Now, they're blocking my access to songs I bought years ago, stating they're part of 'Amazon Unlimited'.
The recommendations are god-awful, how many times do I have to say I don't listen to Taylor Swift??????? When have I ever listened to Taylor Swift (NEVER)? I'm not a moody 12 year old girl.
I tried Amazon Unlimited when it was free for 3 months, and I cannot fathom why people would actually pay $6.99 a month for that additional service. I pay for Prime every year, it should be included.
