The Movie Patton on Blu-ray DVD
When I was in my late teens, I saw my very first military action flick and ever since that time, it is my perferred genre of movies to watch. I am a huge fan of Blackhawk Down, Saving Private Ryan, Full Metal Jacket, Navy Seals, Delta Force and Behind Enemy Lines to name just a few.
About 10 years ago I had the pleasure of seeing “Patton” for the very first time and since then, I have become a big fan of this one too! In my opinion, this is one of the best films that George C. Scott acted in! He was incredible in this film!
Well guess what? The film is being released on Blu-ray DVD starting on November 6th, 2012 and you can bet your bananas, I will be getting this one for my movie collection! Here is some additional information about the upcoming release!
Patton
Winner of seven 1970 ACADEMY AWARDS® including Best Picture and Best Actor for George C. Scott,* Patton is a riveting portrayal of one of the twentieth century’s greatest military geniuses. As rebellious as he was brilliant, George Patton (Scott) was the only general truly feared by the Nazis, yet his own volatile personality was the one enemy he could never defeat.
