Audie Murphy in To Hell and Back on AMC at 11:45am.
Since getting cable I’ve been running into Murphy in B Westerns and I found him to be an odd character. He’s the strong silent type with a long fuse, turning deadly when pushed to it; a classic American hero type, but he’s also a baby-faced naïf, which complicates the image. Turns out he’s an early reality star: the most-decorated soldier of WWII basically playing himself in Hollywood, and literally in To Hell and Back, his autobiography.
