The Seventh Seal. Supposed to be one of the greatest films ever made.

Here he is in an early role and as John Wayne said (as 1st Centurion) "Truly this man was the son of god"

Hey Boss, Waynes one liner in that scene was considered so badly delivered that the director demanded he put some 'awe' into his voice. Wayne then said 'Awe, surely this man was the son of god'.



Well I thought it was funny.

By the way Boss - Escape to Victory??? Really??? That was a truly dreadful film. Sly Stallone trying to play football and Bobby Moore trying to act - and that was only part of it. Apparently most of the Ipswich team figured in it at some point. Why bloody Ipswich. And Pele shouldn't have touched with a bargepole. His credibility went south after that.

Escape to victory! Terrible film and one of the players was ....Owen Coyle!

he scored 12 goals for the team, became manager...the film was 10 years ahead of its time!

You will all find this hard to believe but Max von Sydow was a Blackburn Rovers fan, through his friendship with Roy Hodgson. Now there's some trivia for you.

What a great actor he was

[Claret32yrs]

Hi all. First post. I thought he'd passed away years ago tbh! He certainly had a rough paper round as a lad as I thought he looked 90 years ago. No disrespect meant. Fond memories of him down the years in movie parts.

He was in a different film the one they used Palmerston Park for at some point ..he was only 13 when Escape to victory was made .

Probably because they had a very good side at the time ?

You have not much future there. It will happen this way. You may be walking. Maybe the first sunny day of the spring. And a car will slow beside you, and a door will open, and someone you know, maybe even trust, will get out of the car. And he will smile, a becoming smile. But he will leave open the door of the car and offer to give you a lift.

They were okay but I'm pretty sure they weren't Liverpool at the time bud.

They were okay ? They were runners-up to Villa in the League and won the UEFA Cup so aye not too bad ...but then again I don't think Bob Paisley knew one of the casting team but Bobby Robson did

Ha ha. When was that film anyway bud - I thought it was long after Robson's reign there. I know there was a brief time when the Tractor Boys were very good but I didn't think it coincided with that era - must be wrong I suppose.
