Day 232 "Guns of Navarone" 6 x 9 ink and markers
Tonight we watched "The Guns of Navarone", 1961, based on the book by Alistair MacLean. I read the book in my late teens, along with the James Bond novels, Taylor Caldwell historical fiction, and a bunch of Margaret Truman murder mysteries. "The Guns of Navarone" has a strong cast, including David Niven, Gregory Peck and Anthony Quinn, filmed in Greece, using a lot of locals. Tonight, as I watched, I noticed how well designed many of the scenes were in this World War II action drama. The movie was directed by J. Lee Thompson.
This is a sketch of a very tense scene during which the band on the mission discovers a traitor in their midst.
This is my two hundred thirty-second daily drawing. Thank you for taking a look at the world through my eyes.
