A Word on Westerns

Күн бұрын

2022 was a year of great loss for movie fans. Many film and television veterans passed away during the past 12 months. With this special year end episode of A WORD ON WESTERNS, we honor 25 of those performers who contributed to the western genre. I am glad so many performers and filmmakers took the time to join us over the years to discuss and share their film history memories on our weekly series.
Our AWOW production team felt the loss very hard because 10 of those who died in 2022 have appeared on our series. I have known some of them for over 40 years and they were friends Those who died last year were also some of our most entertaining and popular guests and their stories became part or our goal of preserving western film and television history.
The 25 we honor with this episode were some of the industry’s most respected veterans. We honor those 10 who joined me, and we also pay tribute to 15 more who were never able to participate with us to discuss their film history. We, and future generations, will always have their work to share and enjoy. We thank them, and those not mentioned, for all their work in the genre.
May they Rest in Peace.

I'm 65 and grew up in the 60s watching television westerns. Of course both Gunsmoke and Bonanza were the gold standards.. But I also loved The Rifleman, Wanted Dead Or Alive, Wagon Train, The Big Valley, Have Gun Will Travel ( which I thought was half gun) Death Valley Days, The High Chaparral, Branded, The Wild, Wild Western (which was more of a fantasy show) Rawhide, Alias Smith And Jones and even Kung Fu, Laredo. That's just a few of the great western that filled the airwaves from 1948 to about 1975. When they cancelled Gunsmoke in 1975 that was the end of the era.

How many admired and great Westerners have gone forever on tour this year. Nehemiah Persoff, James Caan, Bo Hoskins, Sidney Poitier, Clu Gulager, Andrew Prine, (yesterday I knew if) George Segal ... I can't erase of my mind the very moving remembrance of Henry Silva crying so much in December 1998 by the death of Frank Sinatra. Today I have to say thanks for so much joy and shed some tears for each of them!!!

Clu Gulager taught an advanced acting class for a while at a film school I was once involved with in Hollywood. One of his exercises one year was to get the entire class of actors, maybe 14 or so students, to come up with their own story scene, write it and put all the actors in it. They all had to struggle together to work it all out and then finally perform it in the class. After their big, always disastrous, presentation was finished, Clu told the class..." I had you do that so you could see that art by committee doesn't work." All the poor bruised egos... Clu was a great guy. "

I'm 76 years old and nearly all of these western stars are familiar to me and I wonder when you no longer are doing this program......who will today's kids or young adults have for heros? A few times in the last year I've heard that westerns are coming back.....I sure hope so. We all watched these "shoot 'em ups" and yet our generation is not responsible for much of today's violence. The "experts" keep telling us that violence on TV is responsible to our violence today. I think that it's not the violence on the screen but how it is presented on the newworks.

One night I was in town with a girlfriend running around her neighborhood. We went into a schoolfriends house and their TV had Star Trek on in color !! I had never seen any color TV before & I couldn't tear myself away from it. When I went home the next day I enthused so much to my Dad...he got us a color TV & we all enjoyed Star Trek episodes all over again, it was like seeing a new show

Westerns I guess you could say made me fall in love with movies all together and I have to say I love black & white most of all. There's something special about a black & white movie. It's hard to explain but you either like them or you don't. Thanks for sharing these Stars with me, these great people that I watched on my TV all my life are a part of my life and that's why their still part of my life even to this very day. I Thank you Sir.

Rob, I was just talking to my sister (who’s about to turn 73) that I have lost three dear friends in the past two weeks. I feel like I’m about the only one left. 😄 My 97 year old uncle passed last week. Another friend of almost forty years just checked into the VA hospital today for two weeks of intravenous antibiotics treatment for MRSA infection. You look up and your loved ones have gone on, but we cherish great memories that keep them alive in our hearts. The Bible says that this earthly life is like a vapor that quickly passes. So true. I greatly appreciate the work you put into assembling this treasure trove of remembrances of our dear Western heroes of film. Thank you once again and God bless!

This was quite touching. Shed many tears. I loved Katheryn Hays when I was a boy. James Caan is one of my all time favorite actors. Larry Storch and F-troop along with McHale's Navy and Hogan's Heroes where my favorite comedys when I was a kid I once had the pleasure of having breakfast at a Jack-in-the-Box in Madera California on a Sunday morning with Jack Hannah and his brother Jo and Lon. Three of the nicest guys you ever met. Felt like I was part of their family. That one hit me the hardest. RIP to all these great celuloide and magnetic tape heroes. Thanks for the lasting memories.

I was honored to give Andy Prine a hand with his dog at the Williamsburg Nostalgia Fest, and to his feet after he spent hours in the chair at his Autograph spot. Rob, you remember that event, and my big mouth interrupting everyone about the lady who lost her glasses, right? Sidney was great in Duel at Diablo, which I watched again the last week, and his talent never failed to please me, in every film he was in.
