Only actor to ever win three supporting acting oscars, I believe.

Sitcom also, THE REAL McCOYS, with Richard Crenna (Rambo's commanding officer, Troutman).

And Sgt York has a love story to it too. What a great movie!! I want to go see the York home in TN.

@@JohnBullard Yes.

Always liked The Guns of Will Sonnet TV series.

I think Eldorado is better. Robert Michum does a marvelous job as the drunk sheriff.

@@donfite9269 , Mitchum, was a better actor than, Dean Martin, but nobody wants to hear him sing, and for a singer, Dean was a pretty good actor.

@@shawnj1966 Mitchum had a Billboard top 100 hit with "The Ballad of Thunder Road", which he co-wrote.

@@donfite9269Arthur Hunnicut was good, too

Another interesting fact is that Johnny Cash wrote a song for Ricky Nelson, but it was not included in the movie. Nelson did record it. The song is titled "Restless Kid".

She saw before starting the channel.

@@jackmessick2869 OK, then she should do Red River.

@@glennwisniewski9536 agreed.

Dang right

Red River and the Searchers he should have won an Oscar for

Yeah, Claude Akins (Joe Burdett) was in a number of movies and tv shows as a bad guy, including several appearances on Gunsmoke.

Ward Bond also played Sergeant Major O'Rourke with a quiet dignity in "Fort Apache" and the scout "Buffalo Baker" in "Hondo".

YES! With James Garner aka James Rockford and Bruce Dern a definite must!! ☮️

Faye Dunaway was also Robert Redford's "volunteer" (as she described herself), whom Redford kidnapped after his office co-workers were massacred, in your very recent reaction to 3 Days of the Condor.

Really a "must watch" movie.

John Russell. He's the villain of sorts in McClintock, and starred in the series Lawman

My problem with High Noon -- so excellent in many ways -- is that the townsfolk had a pretty good point vwhen they reprimand Cain at one point, saying, why didn't you just leave. Almosdt looks more like he's hiding behind the town rather than protecting it.

Will Kane didn't put the Miller gang out of business before by himself. He had a good number of deputies backing him up. The one deputy he had in the movie backed out when he couldn't blackmail himself into being the new marshal. All he was trying to do with this "running around" was to find people who wanted to help by being deputized. Deputizing citizens was a pretty common occurrence in western movies and television shows.

You're seriously shocked that a younger woman would pursue an older man? It happens all the time, Anna Nicole Smith, Lauren Bacall, Katherine Hepburn to name a few. In the late 19th century, when this story took place, younger women often married older established men to secure their future. They could not vote and in some states own property. Have you not read Pride and Prejudice? Marrying well was something most women of this time desired.

@@doc_adams8506 Of course I know this happens, but it's also sexism in Hollywood casting at its finest. As actors age, their love interests remain in their twenties--the IT girl of the week. And there's no evidence that Feathers was after security--marriage was never even mentioned. She clearly just had the hots for John Wayne, who was 24 years her senior--and who didn't have the bonus of ten thousand a year. What much older man did Katharine Hepburn pursue?

One thing I love about Ricky Nelson is that he was naturally cool without even having to try.

A lot of westerns, especially Howard Hawks and John Ford westerns had singing included. All three of Ford's "cavalry trilogy" (Fort Apache, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon and Rio Grande) had musical interludes. The western singing group "The Sons of the Pioneers" appeared in several movies. Ford was asked about this and noted that impromptu singing was common in the 1800's; even on trail drives, cowboys would sing soft songs to the cattle at night to "calm them down."

@@donwild50 Yes but they didn't have Dean & Ricky singing.🙂

@@porflepopnecker4376 Ricky was great when he Hosted on SNL in the 70s

Martin, always overshadowed by Sinatra, was and is a very underrated singer.

Which do you think is better: Rio Bravo or El Dorado?

@@aklimar2208 Overall this one.

@@mikedignum1868 Interesting, in what way? I'm on the opposite side finding El Dorado to be the superior film that, dare I say, *corrects* the failings of Rio Bravo, but I'd really like to know why you think Rio Bravo is better.

You're being extremely generous to call what Eastwood and Marvin did as singing.

Apart from disliking the image of a sheriff "begging" for help, John Wayne also was disgusted by the premise that led to the "begging." He hated High Noon's portrayal of average American citizens of the Old West as cowardly, gutless, and selfish people who would refuse to help the Marshall in his time of need. John Wayne loved America and was an eternal optimist in the goodness, kindness, morality, and heroism of this country and its People (similar to Ronald Reagan), and thus he refused to believe average Americans would behave so dishonorably -- especially concerning a "good guy" lawman/peace officer in need. John Wayne was a VERY CLOSE FRIEND of Gary Cooper but he disagreed with the premise of the movie High Noon because he saw it as leftist, Marxist sympathizer writers deliberately undermining America. You have to remember the context of the time. The 1950s were the early height of the Cold War, there was the "Red Scare" in Hollywood -- which, BTW, has later been PROVEN by FACT to have been a MERITORIOUS inquiry because old Soviet records disclosed that the Soviets had indeed placed Communist agents and sympathizers as script writers and actors in Hollywood (among other places, including infiltrating American academia, American media, and even the U.S. GOVERNMENT itself, especially the State Department !!!!!) So John Wayne, a staunch patriot and anti-Communist, wanted to do a movie that CELEBRATED America and the virtues of Americans as a specific rebuttal to High Noon.

I believe the actress is Estelita Rodriguez who was married 4 times but never to Pedro. Pedro was married to his one and only wife for 62 years. Pedro recounted courting his wife to Groucho Marx on You Bet Your Life in 1953. It is on KZfaq. Hilarious, and led to John Wayne signing him to a movie contract.

Back in the 1950s, people went to see the Western " High Noon ". Seven years later people went to the theater to see " Rio Bravo ". I don't recall anyone comparing the one to the other or thinking " Rio Bravo" was a response. Of course, I was young and probably not paying attention. The only thing the two movies had in common was one was in black & white and the other was in Technicolor. " Hey! "
