    Kelly's Heroes

    Who played Kelly in the movie?'Kelly's Heroes' Trivia

      Clint Eastwood. Eastwood got a good jump on his western cowboy persona way back in 1956, as Rowdy Yates in 'Rawhide'.

      Big Joe. Telly Savales had a half pointer finger on his right hand. During filming, they were careful about camera angles to minimize showing it.

Crap Game wanted Big Joe to make 'a 'deal' deal!' with the commander. Crap Game said of the commander, 'Maybe he's a...' Maybe he's a what?'Kelly's Heroes' Again
