I love The Sand Pebbles. Damn, I need to get some McQueen movies on DVD. Love most 'em, own none of 'em.

Yes, there is a fantastic special edition DVD of "The Sand Pebbles" loaded with extras & docs and the fansite above is a great tribute to the film.

I've recently read the McKenna novel and it's amazing how much of the book Robert Wise managed to get on the screen. Steve McQueen is at his finest here as is Richard Crenna as the ship's captain, simply superb stuff, and as for Candice Bergen ....wow! very high on my list of top naval movies.
