      @@buckjohnson1119 I'm glad you're a fan of Kelly's Heroes too . And yes , Oddball and Moriorty, - or is it Moriarty ? - not sure, but they were both great in the film ! I think Donald Sutherland gave one of his best ever performances as Oddball. Thanks for mentioning the name of the actor who played Moriarty, I didn't know his name before. He gave a great performance as the disgruntled engineer throughout the film I think. The exchanges between Oddball and Moriarty about " negative waves " always make me laugh !

    The Filipino guy was Joe Quirino, author, actor and TV presenter. He had a show in the 70s and 80s called Seeing Stars with Joe Quirino. Outstanding host. He was part of that tough-as-nails World War II generation (like Don) that didn't get hurt by a joke and went on fighting through life, where jokes are the least of your worries. He died in the late 80s.

    I think Telly Savalas introduced Don and Clint back in 1961 and they become best friends for 56 years, until the day Don passed away. No one could crack Clint like Don did. Two different personalities that managed to have a friendship for more than half a century. Don wrote notes and letters to Clint all the time. He did that with all his friends, always roasting them. But once he wrote a note do Clint that just said "I'm very proud of you. Barbara and I are always rooting for your success. I love you." Some sources say that Clint cried quite a bit while receiving the news that Don had died.

      Wait until the idiots on Twitter discover Don Rickles they will go insane with impotent fury and rage wishing they could bring him back to life so they could cancel him. This happens whenever they discover something old before they were born. They hated Steve Martin's brilliant King Tut music sketch from SNL it originally aired in 1977 or 1978 and the SJW crowd Hated it they thought it made fun of Egyptians. They tried to get Friends taken off the air because the Friends were all White. They got angry at Letterman for his interviews from 25 years ago.

    Saw and met Don Rickles at the Sahara in Vegas back in '76. What a great human being.

    wow, finally a clip of Rickles I haven’t seen. This is great. It’s like someone was just taking home movies of the behind the scenes on Kelly’s Heroes. I really miss Rickles. He was one of a kind.

    WOW!!! This was really a treat. Kelly's Heroes is my favorite Clint Eastwood and this film even makes it better. Don Rickles is just hilarious making everybody including Clint to break down in laughter. As a pinoy, I was suprised that Joe Quirino was on the set and interviewed Rickles and he had a good time too. His delivery of jokes is amazingly spontaneous. Undoubtably everyone liked working with him.
