Default Favorite Woody Strode movie?
Woody Strode - Rotten Tomatoes

He was certainly memorable in various movies especially in what many consider the best opening in a Western in Once Upon a Time in the West.

Here is a fight scene from 1960's Spartacus with Kirk Douglas facing off with Woody Strode. Mr. Strode played Draba.

I will go along with Spartacus. Woody Strode gave his life to make a point.

Default The Quick and the Dead.

He has a very small part as the undertaker in the movie The Quick and the Dead. The movie has a Dedication to him at the end in the credits.
