I believe you'll want this link. The setup starts around 7:48, although the "actual scene" in question starts closer to 8:40 or so.

Edit: And may I just say, Mr. Hans, that I'm loving this blog so far. I really enjoy both the scene breakdowns and the weapon writeups.

One thing I've always found interesting in these and other scene writeups is the prevalence of All-Out Attack (even in melee). I'm sure that it's in part a byproduct of cinematic effect (Sam Snead would seem a lot less impressive if he were handling Cairo cautiously, as opposed to manhandling him), but I wonder if GURPS play in practice, because of the attached rules, also tends to significantly understate the commonness of AOAs (or even Committed Attacks).
