He is strumming his guitar, however the sound was dubbed by another. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOKjRBDTNso at 58:18 Fight for Life, written and directed by Pare Lorentz who also made (for the US Government) two better known films THE RIVER, and THE PLOW THAT BROKE THE PLAINS. All are readily available on DVD/R or youtube. Cheers, Thomas. |

12 Feb 20 - 10:02 PM (#4033930) Subject: RE: Woody Guthrie trivia From: punkfolkrocker There is a recent Russian war movie about the female sniper Woody wrote a song about. An actor plays Woody in a few short scenes.. Right now I can't remember the title, but if anyone is bothered googling, it's an entertaining but necessarily brutal and bloody movie... |
