The first episode for the March Batch episode features in-depth reviews of The Hunter, Conquest of Space, MArooned, Audrey Rose and Johnny Got His Gun . The Hunter (Imprint Collection #110) THE INCREDIBLE TRUE STORY OF RALPH ‘PAPA’ THORSON. HE’S A MODERN-DAY BOUNTY HUNTER AND THAT’S WHAT MAKES HIM DANGEROUS. Steve McQueen’s last movie shows the dynamic talent of the late, great actor in one of his most memorable roles: the true story of Ralph “Papa” Thorson, a modern-day bounty hunter. Thorson’s exploits are detailed as he pursues a number of fugitives who have skipped bail. The chase comes full circle when he becomes the quarry of a vengeful psychopath. McQueen’s multi-dimensional performance as Thorson, a man born in the wrong age, is the counterpoint to the explosive action in The Hunter.

War has plunged Army soldier Joe Bonham (Timothy Bottoms) into an unending nightmare. Hit by an artillery shell in World War I, Joe has suffered injuries that have all but erased his humanity: he’s lost his sight, speech, hearing and sense of smell. But he still has the ability to think and remember, which, in the end, maybe more a curse than a blessing. Trapped in his body, Joe realizes there’s only one way out of his misery: death. Can he get a sympathetic nurse to help him?
