The Wild Geese Premiere

In London's West End

[@exeyez1969]

My best movie of all time. Genius. Thanks Richard Harris, Richard Burton and Roger More. I am still watching this movie these days, now.

[@davidfrost2819]

The date of the premiere was July 6th 1978 I was 12 at the time but can still Remember as like it was yesterday. The days of brilliant premieres brilliant actors and actresses and of course brilliant films.

This takes me back to being a child in the 70's

[@HamanKarn567]

One of my favorite movies.

[@megakonto3871]

I remember watching this mowie at cinemas. I was 8 yrs at that time. That was 42 years ago. As of today there are only 2 actors alive.

Schau ich heute noch immer wieder an. Absoluter wegweisender klassiker des söldner und aktionfilme!

[@andypeterson3070]

What a great movie clip here. How things have changed a lot in the 42 years since then. The Wild Geese is one of my all time favourites.

[@christianorr1059]

Way to go, @Paul Spurrier, Fight On!! ✌️✌️ “The Wild Geese” is one of my all-time favourite films, personally relatable in more ways than one!

[@hansgruber650]

Ian Yule was a Professional soldier and a Mercenary, the real deal.

[@Marvel66666]

Great actors and great time. I wished Richard Burton was still alive for part II

[@dav01kar]

Never seen this, thanks ,went to the cinema with my father to watch this film. Fantastic keep watching it after all these years. One of the best war films of all time.

[@christianorr1059]

James Henderson Piss off with your PC Thought Police poppycock, SJW snowflake! Did you even pay attention to the enlightened conversation between Julius Limbani and Pieter Coetzee?

[@porkscratchings5428]

My parents went to that, it was 6th July 1978 as it was my brothers birthday.

[@andydixon2980]

I was wondering when your brothers birthday was.

Underrated Classic!

Emile....Emile!! Thanks for posting!

[@davidreid8075]

Great performance by Kenneth Griffith.

[@mohans287]

The highlight of the movie is the clear enunciation by almost all the actors unlike the garbled dialogues we hear in today's movies

[@odiemodie1]

"Com'on, Rafer!" "Shawn! Stop the bloody plane!" "I can't! If we don't make it on the first run, we've had it!" Seems Richard Harris and Rodger Moore were MIA at the premiere...

[@Lee_1971]

It was all a bit beneath old Rog. probably, too busy being 007, probably did W.G. as a favour!

[@JDomingos1968]

Desde criança sou admirador deste filme, Wild Geese, porém, em meu idioma a tradução deste filme ficou "Os Selvagens Cães de Guerra" ( The wild WarDogs). A trama sempre me impressionou desde então, e me tornei um fã do filme, de Richard Burton, Roger Moore, que viria a se tornar 007, James Bond, Richard Harris, grande ator, e o alemão Hard Krueger. Por anos sempre gostei de assistir as reprises deste filme icônico, reprisado pela tv sempre à noite, no início da madrugada, pois nunca perdia uma oportunidade de rever o filme e de acompanhar as excelentes sequências de ação. For me, "Wild Geese" is a Classic Movie.

[@andypeterson3070]

One of the very best.

[@robneysouzacorrea5681]

Domingos, uma dica: Roger Moore já era o agente 007. Sua estréia foi com Viva e Deixe Morrer (1973). O diretor Andrew V. MacLaglen era filho do ator Victor MacLaglen, afilhado do diretor John Ford (vencedor de 04 Oscar) e compadre de John Wayne, a quem dirigiu em 06 filmes. Abs.

[@nicholasgerrish6022]

What a Film, great acting, even the obnoxious child! Those were the days……

[@bodieofci5418]

Back then Spastic wasn't an offensive term. Wasn't it great when the world wasn't offended by everything. 0:44. Mrs Richard Burton who used to be Mrs James Hunt.

[@dobr4481]

The term 'spastic' fell into disuse with good reason, it was commonly used as an insult. You didn't hear kids call each other 'cerebral palsy' in the playground did you?

[@pattykuvshin]

A great and melancholic film

[@benbim540]

yeah a classic but bittersweet.

[@jayrox40]

Sheer class. Not like Todays Hollywood paedo, virtue signalling elite. An amazing film.

[@janmcdonald3896]

So wonderful 2 c Ernie & his wife Doreen who were great supporters of the charity.

[@Yellowswift3]

Thank you for the upload. :) Do you have any particular memories of your time on this film? Thanks.

[@ab8588]

Burton! Harris!Krueger! Moore! The original Avengers!

[@TheFixer_1]

Try saying Spastic now... holy hell you'd get into a shitload of trouble...

[@andydixon2980]

You could probably say 'spaz' then and still get away with a couple of disaproving frowns.

[@dobr4481]

Why would you want to given that it was more commonly used as a playground insult rather than a word used to denote a symptomatic phenomenon seen in patients with a wide range of central neurological disorders, including spinal cord injury?

Thanks for this. Where is Daniel Carney? I am trying to write a piece about him so any help/memories you have of his visit to the set would be great. Thank you

Stars Organization for Spastics? I'm sure they made it more PC now, but clinically what affliction are they talking about when they said "spastic" ?

[@marclaw4511]

Spastic no no no.

[@thespywholovedme1977]

But it was perfectly okay to say it then, then, then. Nowadays you can’t open your mouth without offending someone. The world was a less 'easily offended' place back then.
