Patrick Swayze...

I was just watching "Red Dawn" with Patrick Swayze and noticed he is wearing a Rolex Submariner, most likely new from 1984. It is at 10:13 according to Netflix when i paused it if anyone is interested to find it out.

Just thought i'd share.

Interesting. There have been several of Patrick's movies run on the free-to-air channels here recently. Black Dog is on tonight. Brought back memories.
His movies are not great art but I always enjoyed them. I had no choice, my wife was always a big fan, particularly "Dirty Dancing".

He deserved an emmy just for keeping a straight face while Farley was dancing...one of the all time best SNL skits.

Yeah, i watched Point Break because of Swayze. Gary Busey and Keanu Reeves is a potent combination of sorts.

Point Break is a classic. It was one of my favorite shows.

Point Break and Roadhouse. Ghost, not so much.
