Wake me up when “The Stalking Moon” is on.

I love that there is no mention of the channel or streaming app.

But the thread just keeps rolling. LOL

I think I learnt more from Gary Cooper wettin’ his front sight than I did watchin’ Jimmy Stewart shoot thru a postage stamp!

I never shouldered one of those tight radius butts. They pretty comfortable?


Flave you are about 12 hrs late.

The chief was dead on my second post.

Seems like that aired about....what????....70 years back!!

Of all the Jimmy Stewart flicks, I think my favorite is probably the Charles Lindbergh one.

If'n you wet your front sight for a postage stamp, the shot will stick....

I particularly like how the woman goes through at least three men in the course of the movie and never sheds a tear.

For those that really liked it, there is a remake from the sixties.

"There are some things a Man's got to do. So he does them." As good as an explanation of why men finish jobs of retribution as any.

And seeking revenge against the person who had killed your father is as old as the Orestes cycle. It's a cultural thing.

Somewhat realistic. And she makes coffee.

Another forgotten gem, "The Spirit of St Louis".



It's "Destry Rides Again", "Winchester 73", or "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" for me. But there are others.

Yes, it’s pleasant to shoot. A 38-40 is a pistol cartridge size, so little recoil. I’ve killed a few piggies with it.

She had three men during the movie and I think she had her eye on Indian Chief Rock Hudson.
She didn't know he was gay.

I thought this was interesting. From the Buffalo Bill museum in Cody.
