    Audie Murphy Bio-Epic Coming Being Made

    For those of you who do not know there is a new bio epic movie on Audie in the works.
    The rights to Don Graham's book, "No Name on the Bullet" has been bought by two Hollywood producers, Arthur E. Friedman ("Beyond the Sea") and Steven Jay Rubin.
    It will be sort of a "The Aviator" and "Beyond the Sea" type movie which will take place from Audie's childhood through his death.
    Of course "The Aviator" was about Howard Hughes and "Beyond the Sea" was about the life of Bobby Darin.
    "Beyond the Sea" got good reviews at the Box Office and did very well overall.
    There are suppossed to be at least three different actors portaying Murphy at various stages in his life. No names on who is being cast, although Cillian Murphy, suppossedly a distant cousin of Audie who got great reviews for the movie "Red Eye" a couple of years ago and who has an amazing resemblence to Audie has been bantied about.
    His Son, Terry, is advising. It is interesting that Terry is advising as Graham's book did not paint a pretty picture of Murphy post-war, and was not well received by the Murphy family.
    Stay tuned for further details. I would assume the project is at least two years from completion.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle.
