Great one!
…and that song will be stuck in my head now…
Great one!
…and that song will be stuck in my head now…
Ha…that’s the one!
On Saturday’s when I don’t have to work, it’s “Westerns Saturday”. I get in either a couple of movies (recently it was Big Jake). How does the line go:
Richard Boone: “Who are you?”
John Wayne: “Jacob McCandles”
Richard Boone: “I thought you were dead.”
John Wayne: “Not hardly”
I also do old Western series like The Rifleman, Cheyenne, Larimie, Wagon Train, Bonanza, The Big Valley…and on and on… Oooops…I’m telling my age… 
Took me all day to finish Arsenic and Old Lace. Hilarious movie! Never heard anyone so proudly claim “I’m the son of a sea cook!”
Independence Day, any John Wayne, Major Payne, Down Periscope, Two Mules for Sister Sarah, A Few Dollars More
Yep, this was mentioned as my favorite movie. We think alike. I’ve also been reading (audible) all the westerns by William W Johnstone. I used to read dystopian books but the last one I was reading was in February about a plague and financial collapse, of all things. I had to stop reading it about a 1/3 in.
The westerns have good story, good vs. evil and of course firearms. They’re a great break from all the Barack Shummer that’s going on in the world right now.
Next one on my list will be The Outlaw Josey Wales. You are reading Westerns for the same reason I’m watching Classic Movies. Johnstone is a great author. I’m re-reading The Kelly Turnbull series by Kurt Schlicter because they are entertaining.
For some good western try Robert B. Parker’s "Hitch and Cole"series. I believe the first one is called APPALOOSA. Elmore Leonard wrote a few also, “3:10 to Yuma” being the best known.
The Quiet Man, John Wayne and Maureen O’Hara at their best. Great fight scene. Visited the village of Cong where it was filmed when we went to Ireland 2 years ago. The little pub in the flick is still there, stillopen👍

I did get to watch The Good, The Bad and The Ugly this week before my Netflix subscription ran out.
We deal in lead friend!
Classic western along with Tombstone and the John Ford Calvary trilogy.
Steve McQueen used that phrase in the Magnificent 7
K then, another fav since that was used is, McClintock, though my wife detests it for the spanking the daughter gets in the movie. She’s just silly.
Good taste in movies brother ![]()
TCM is running a batch of John Ford / John Wayne movies this weekend
I can suggest so many. As far as classics, I would say The Wizard Of Oz, Psycho, 12 Angry Men, Casablanca, Gone With The Wind and The Bachelor and the Bobby Soxer are some of my favorite classics. Another that is technically bad, but has that drive in movie feel to it and is fun to watch is The Giant Gila Monster. Mystery Science Theater 3000 riffed on it and it was funny as heck.
