YEAH!!!!!! 👍🏼😁

Me too!

I recall years ago, Eddie Murphy said he wanted to do a western. But a gritty one, not a comedy. I know he doesn't have Bass's size but he is old enough, athletic enough and I think could play the role well. Bass Reeves is loooong overdue for a good biopic.

and I'd be second.

Denzel has the integrity and capability for this role. He would do it justice. Courtesy of Half Vast Flying

Awesome can’t wait for this series TS knows what is Great

Amen

It's my understanding that Clint Eastwood partially based his Jed Cooper character on Bass Reeves.

Actually you can. People make a lot of stuff up about Bass.

@@SKaR64 Can you name any of these ... "people?"

@@SKaR64 You sir need no introduction.

@@docsmithdc What's up Doc. Was that a cryptic dis? 🤔

Hollywood still wants you to still believe in The Lone Ranger story, history is always being made to show certain images.

a poet and don't know it

Yep...I live in conway..Rooster Cogburn starring John Wayne and Hang em High starring Clint Eastwood

After watching this clip I see the movie Hang em High modeled the jail and courtroom building after the real one in Fort Smith.

Well the 'Hangin Judge ' Parker's pretty well known .

As far as I know, Bass is buried at a small cemetery in Muskogee. The grave is unmarked, like a few others in the old cemetery.

Mr. Skinner has come such a long way in documenting heroes to villains. Marvelous! I look forward his videos, too. 👍

Superbly true.

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Thank you Jim for your kindness. Jerry

Movie was attempted, but in today's Market set in a mal-thinking society; an uncontrolled Black roughed individualist, family oriented, free thinking successful conservative lawman fighting obsessively for justice; could NOT SELL!

@@ronaldwinker2197 There have been several movies about Bass over the last 30 years and there are a couple new ones out now.

I agree that a docudrama about Reeves, tastefully done, would provide a good and solid story.

We know why they won't make a movie of this great Honorable Black man 😳🧐🤔🥺🙁

It’s called Hell on the Border. Prime video

Thank you Keith. Jerry

It's all here. It was told. Westerns aren't cool anymore unless they express racist hatred of whites somehow.

​@@travler1226😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Thank you Frankie. Jerry

Priscella. That's a recently invented myth that was created to promote a book.

Thank you Fred for pointing that out. Our gold is to get as close to the truth we can. Thanks for the information. Jerry

Inform Jerry then.

@@flexairz who are you?

Mr. Skinner, to get to bass reeves in Muskogee, ok. His grave is located across the street from a trucking company called Trucks for you, there is a white building which is a business that can take you part of the way there with permission of course. The trail is about a 30 minute walk to there. The grave is marked. That cemetery is also know as the cemetery for former slaves in Muskogee. The property right in from of the cemetery is for sell so the while business building is the only way there to the grave. Yes I have been there to see it not to long ago. The house the bass reeves lived was on Howard street but now it is where Walmart stands, his house would have been located where the garden center is at now.

Good to see a comment from my friends in Winter Springs again. Jerry
