Weblog reader Capt. J.M. Heinrichs chips in with some comments!
I wrote a while back on the book Coup d'Etat, and he mentions that he was involved in the filming of a film that had a working title of "Coup d'Etat" starring Peter O'Toole:
The outdoor scenes were largely filmed at CFB Borden, where I was on my BOTC at the time. Some of the extras appearing in the film were from my course, we were "volunteered". My significant memory was of dashing around the back of an APC and nearly cross checking Mr. O'Toole with my rifle.
He adds that you can still sometimes see the 1978 movie, which is named Power Play on late night TV...
