    Hitchcock was one of the rare exceptions in Hollywood. Outside of his tenure with Selznick, he was one of the first auteurs in town because his material derived from him, he bought the rights to a book often out of his own pocket in order to build a plot, and he controlled the editing, notoriously in that he planned every shot in advance and left practically nothing on the editing room floor.

    One thing about Kelly's Heros though. You have to give a nod to the technical accuracy.

(Nobody attempted that Tiger thing again until Saving Private Ryan.)

    Ted "Gopher" Grandy was a middle of the road, moderate Republican from Northwest Iowa who was a rising star in the Republican party and a state senator who was very popular. In 1986(?) he ran against the Republican Machine and tried to unseat Terry "Governor for Life" Branstad. That move made him persona non grata with Republican bigwigs who were moving the party away from moderation and conservatism to Reaganomics and the Flat Earth branch of the party. Grandy exited politics after his failed coup to stop the Iowa Republican party from moving to the radical right.
