Watched it on TV today for the first time in 30 years. Such a fucking classic. Underappreciated in today's beta world.Toxic Masculinity my ass!....... fuck that shitThe champion.....JON-A-THON JON-A-THON JON-A-THON JON-A-THON JON-A-THON
Good flick. Better book. But it's "JON-A-THAN"In the book Jonathan is about 6'4" and 250, not a scrawny-sized James Caan.I guess Arnold wasn't available.
Caan played the role pretty f'n good. Gave off the impression of being larger than he really is. Exuding a broad shouldered look.in the Book does the ending differ at all from the movie?
