He has been in a lot of very good movies. A number of them were featured when I audited a film criticism class back at the University of Nevada, Reno taught by Howard Rosenberg. chevron-right This course I took was on Westerns. Also took one on Horror/Sci-Fi. Audited both as I already had two BAs and was looking into a Masters Degree. I recall Red River, Stagecoach and maybe The Cowboys being covered by Professor Rosenberg in the course. And maybe this one--The Searchers - Rotten Tomatoes Last edited by Taltarzac725; 05-26-2023 at 06:15 PM. |

Most all of them but
Rio Bravo is my all time favorite. Add in Dean Martin, Walter Brennan, Angie Dickinson and Ricky Nelson and a great story and performances what more can you ask?

That was the favorite movie of a retired nurse I used to help with gardening, house cleaning, dog bathing, driving her for shopping, etc., in the older areas of Reno, Nevada. Her house was about 70 years old an this was in the 1970s through early 1980s. She had been in the house for decades and had seen Reno grow. Think she had boarders and one of those was a boxer. She kind of chilled to me when I took off to Brigham Young Law School in 1982 but I could only take about ten days of dealing with a roommate who was a recent convert to Mormonism who wanted me to see the light. She had really hated lawyers. I did work for her a little bit more before most of our family moved out of Reno, Nevada in 1984. Her son was a police man with the Reno PD. Or, something like that. I would ask him about various cases I was interested in or ask her mother to relay my curiosity. She really appreciated John Wayne movies though. She had been born around 1900 and probably had seen many of them in Reno movie theaters. |

Lonely Are the Brave - Wikipedia
This is Kirk Douglas' favorite performance of his in a movie. A very philosophical western. Deep stuff. Lonely Are the Brave - Rotten Tomatoes |
