Played a slick scumbag as the operator of that riverside “clip joint” in “ How The West Was Won”. Jimmy Stewart found that out the hard way when was suckered in there.

Besides Support Your Local Sheriff, my favorite WB flick is To Have and Have Not, which also featured the lovely Lauren Bacall, aged 18 IIRC. Bogey fell like a ton of bricks. You ever been stung by a dead bee?

Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."

Rio Bravo is certainly one of my favorites also. "My rifle, my pony, and me," can be heard playing at my home, weekly.

played one of the bad guy Clantins in My Darlin Clemintine with Henry Fonda as Wyette Earp Brennan wasn't just "one of the bad guy Clantons," he was the patriarch of the outlaw gang, Old Man Ike Clanton. One of the best lines by Brennan in that movie was when he was quirting one of his sons after Wyatt Earp backed him down. "Don't you never pull a gun on a man again .... 'less you kill him with it!" I never forgot that line of Brennan dialogue.  L.W.

Excellent in EVERYTHING he was in. Quite the prodigious actor from Red River to Sargent York, he was great in every role he played.
I know you all agree!

One of my favorites is "Goodbye My Lady", about a lost Basenji in the Louisiana bayou. With the kid that played in "Shane"

Steve us: “Goodbye My Lady” was written by Mississippi author, James Street. I vividly remember my fourth grade teacher reading a portion of it after lunch each day until she finished it. Loved it when the movie came out. Introduced my grandkids to the movie. Also Ole Yellar, and the sequel Savage Sam. Yeah we all cried at the end of Ole Yellar. I’m old enough to remember when folks notched the ears of their hogs and let them free range. Round em up in the fall using them glass eyed Catahoula hounds.
