Save The Tiger Redux - About the Movie

[Ghost_Tracker]

I accidentally posted this in the Stevie forum earlier - sorry.


At ANY rate - - - -

Has anybody ever seen the movie "Save the Tiger" starring Jack Lemmon?
(He won a Best Actor Oscar for his performance in it.)

Unfortunately there's no clips from Youtube to show - There's not even one split-second of it;
only some footage of Lemmon accepting the Academy Award for his performance.
Anyway - - - I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by this movie; especially Lemmon's
performance in it. And the end scene was just STUNNING. They simply show
the main character - who had gotten himself in "a bit of trouble" - at the beach,
looking down at the waves - But in the background - in his mind - is all this
noise from a really intense battle in World War II - I don't believe there had been any indication
at all thru the whole movie that this guy was a war hero - you hear him yelling
more and more intensely, giving orders and so on and realize that in a way, that's
who he "really was." Puts a whole new twist, suddenly, on the whole movie, right
at the very end - you almost hate him and suddenly you love him. Besides throwing
a whole new twist on the main character, it makes this really powerful visual
statement of like, "What the f. are we DOING here!? "
i.m.o. the whole thing is VERY well done.

Anyway has anyone else seen this? Any thoughts on it?
