JohnMitchell 14 #3 May 26, 2010 Definitely will go see that movie. I know just a little about the woman. I hope they stick close to the real story and don't Hollywood it up too much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

topdocker 0 #7 May 26, 2010 Chuck Yeager has some pretty good stories about Pancho and her bar/brothel in "Yeager." Good book, too. I'll definitely check out the movie about her! topJump more, post less! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shotgun 1 #11 March 22, 2012 This came to me today as a suggestion on Netflix Instant Watch, so I watched it.... and Wow! Absolutely loved it! Some very interesting history, plus the woman is just awesome. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest #12 March 22, 2012 Quote Looks like it will be a great movie.. http://www.legendofpanchobarnes.com/film/index.php I hope so. It's a shame it's only a documentary and not an historical drama. The USAF essentially stole her land, and the fire was a mystery. The really sad part about it all is that she died alone in a trailer in the middle of nowhere, and it was three weeks before anyone even noticed (Source: "Yeager: An Autobiography") mh ."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."

There was a LOT of that going around in the 1940's and 1950's in the name of National Security. It happened to our family in FL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
