The Great Waldo Pepper | Year: 1975 Classification: Comedy Directed: - George Roy Hill Actors/Actresses: - Robert Redford A great classic Redford-film filled with strong lines... Great Waldo Pepper is a high-flying and neck-braking movie about 2 stunt pilots. But it is also a lovestory. I mean: Who cannot fall in love with Robert Redford with crutches and leg-cast! GREAT MOVIE!!! Great Waldo Pepper - a must see This movie is a winner. For History buffs, it will take you down "memory lane" or show you how it was during the great barnstorming era. Robert Redford is the Great Waldo Pepper, a World War I "flying ace," who never saw combat because of his value as an instructor, thus he missed the actual fighting. He yearns for the chance to use his skills in combat against Germany's ace, von Kessler. Coincidently, Kessler is in America and it so happens he flys action scenes for a movie company, based on his life as a fighter pilot. Pepper befriends Kessler on the movie set and both face each other in "actual combat." The finale is not only thrilling, but touching.<BR> Buy it, see it, enjoy it. I Know What It's Like Growing up this was significant to me, because I had already seen Jeremiah Johnson and other countless Redford films. Also recently, I moved to Elgin, Texas, just 2 miles from where Redford's airplane was filmed flying through the center of a historical small town! The pictures and newspaper articles are in the town's railroad depot museum. The town hasn't changed much since then and is very historical to this day.
