Viewing Notes

Another film I started last night but finished tonight was The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming, that was on the Retroplex channel. Probably wouldn’t have caught it if hadn’t left the station running but I’m glad I did (and DVR’d to finish later). Helluva cast & entertaining to boot.
