Got two women in their 30's working for me part time and they've never heard of Steve McQueen so I rented The Sand Pebbles for them.

What should be next, if they like him? The Hustler?

he's got the single greatest line-reading of all time of of "Oh Poop" (but the S-word) in the Towering Inferno.

uh, he wasn't in The Hustler. That was Newman. Towering Inferno has both of 'em though. Pretty damn entertaining disaster flick also.

Papillion! While I like all those you guys have mentioned, The Great Escape has a lot of other characters, while Papillion is more focused on McQueen.

Anyways, all of them are good.

Of all McQueen movies, Sand Pebbles is my least favorite. Sorry. Great Escape and the Getaway are my faves. I just saw part of one where he is a bull rider. Forget the name, but started out okay.

There is another McQueen show I am thinking of, but I just can't think of the name.

Papillon is a great show as well.

Duh. Thanks. Brain fart. Meant Bullitt. Never saw The Towering Inferno and forgot about Papillon.
