How could I ever forget how gawd good Kurt Russell is in "Escape from New York".....

Ok, a very quirky movie..... but he looks great with that eye patch. Only other famous actor wearing a eye patch was John Wayne in True Grit. Kurt is rocking soooooooooooomuch better.

in “The Three Musketeers” a lot harder than John Wayne. The eyepatch was actually Lee’s idea. His character Rochefort, the Man of Meung, didn’t wear one in the novel.
Nearly every actor who has played the role since Lee has adopted his eyepatch.
