As your guest pointed out, few actors could handle firearms as well as Lee Marvin. I got out my DVD of Prime Cut, just to see that scene in the sunflower field again. The way ex-Marine Marvin preps the S&W submachine gun, and tapes the magazines together is seriously cool. In addition, there is the way He delivers dialogue -all through 'The Killers' (1964) - great closing line - to the Dirty Dozen, and Prime Cut. In "The Delta Force" (1986) trailer, his one line “It’s a go. Take ‘em down.” - was more memorable than any of Chuck Norris' butt kicking. I agree with one blogger - one the best lines in movie history. Even as age and hard living wore him down, He was still perfectl cast in "Gorky Park" as Osborne. Note: According to one source (IMDB), Gene Hackman's character is called "Mary Ann" because the name of the Company he runs is "Mary Ann's Meats" - like Dolly Madison or Betty Crocker.
