This movie was basically Director John Ford taking a bunch of his film-making buddy's including John Wayne & Lee Marvin to Hawaii for 3 months and getting the Studio to pay for it.

To me, this is a Christmas movie, more so than most made-to-be Christmas movies. Since this movie does show the manger scene and with Silent Night, the reason for the season.

Something about this movie always makes me happy.

Gilhooly is played by Lee Marvin.

Big Frank

This is an oldie!!!

The reason Gillhooly hit the guy on the boat with the broom is because he was Shanghai 'ed. which is basically being kidnapped or tricked and forced to work on a ship as crew.

Dirty Dozen is the best Lee Marvin film imo.

Al Mason

Happiest of birthdays, JL!!!
