Erendira -- Claudia Ohana in *Erendira* AKA *The Incredible And Sad Story Of Innocent Erendira And Her Heartless Grandmother* , which is nowhere to be found, as far as I can tell.

Correct. It opens in Arizona, on Feb 29, 1908 where rancher Pat Garrett has a confrontation with a neighbor over an argument thay are having about land use. Gunfire breaks out, and the action flashes back to New Mexico in the early 1880s, where the action tells Director Sam Peckinpah'a version of _Sheriff_ Pat Garrett's execution of his orders to track down Billy The Kid, who is a political embarassment to the local powers. Soon after Billy's death is depicted, the action fades back to 1908, where Garrett takes his final shot and dies. Pat Garrett was killed by a neighboring rancher in a dispute over grazing rights for goats. Miles' thread.

Clint Eastwood as "Bill Munny", discussing his past life in *The Unforgiven* ??

Western. A story that has been filmed many times, in many versions. Somewhat fact-based, somewhat legend-based. 1970s release.

Bannon, Hud -- Paul Newman, title role in *Hud* (1963)

I say they're remakes. And I theorize that the next incarnation of this plot will involve a pizzeria dynasty wherein Papa serves ungrated parmesan, and somebody chokes. The movies cited in the last question have another thing in common that relates to the question I want to pose -- story structure. Their stories open with the convict son, paroled, going home and meeting family and acquaintances. Then, as the son stands before a portrait of the father (who is now deceased), the story flashes back some years and gives the background of the family conflict. Fading back in to the "present" the story advences to the final showdown among the sons. This brings to mind another movie with a looonnng flashback. Call the origional runtime two hours and two minutes. Estimate that an hour and fifty-nine minutes are spent in the flashback and three minutes are spent in the "present". The flashback comes in the middle of a quick ambush/gunfight. It opens in 1908, flashes back to the early 1880s, leads up to a shooting death in 1881, and fades back for the final 30 secends or so of the 1908 shootout. Film?

*(Madame) X* , AKA Holly Parker -- 1966 title role for Lana Turner

*House Of Strangers* -- 1949 -- Robinson -- Banker *Broken Lance* -- 1954 -- Tracy -- Rancher *The Big Show* -- 1961 -- Nehemia Persoff -- Trapeze artist. Robinson committed some banking fraud; Tracy got someone killed in a turf war with copper miners; Persoff pinched pennies and failed to replace a worn turnbuckle and somebody died. In each case a son took the fall for the misdeed and did the time.

Steve Brodie ("Jack Fisher") in *Out Of The Past* ??

*Fort Dobbs*

Speaking of TV characters, a sentimental favorite of mine: Rockford, Joseph -- Noah Berry (Jr) as Jim's dad, "Rocky", on *The Rockford Files*

Pardner -- Clint Eastwood in *Paint Your Wagon* (1969)

'lana, that surprised me, if nobody else. Casting about for something here: End of a final voiceover: "...and they'll see, and they'll know. And they'll say, 'Why she wouldn't even hurt a fly !' "

Anselmo -- Vladimir Sokoloff in *For Whom the Bell Tolls* (1943)

Vargas -- Philip Locke in *Thunderball* (1965)

WAG here: *Calamity Jane* ?

*Vengeance Valley*

Quagmire, Glen -- voiced by Seth MacFarlane in *The Family Guy* (TV) "Giggity-giggity!"

Nolan, Newley -- Ted Donaldson in *A Tree Grows In Brooklyn*

*Trader Horn* -- 1931 title role for Harry Carey.

Yvonne -- Samantha Sheldon in *White Oleander*

*Cold Mountain*

At 52 Views. Correct, Eve. I dug this 1955 film up from memory, having seen it on TV in about 1964. I had read the source novel a couple of years before. Researching before posing clues, I found a pretty strong sentiment for both a TCM airing and a DVD print. *The View From Pompey's Head* is on the TCM list, and has a very full plot summary for anyone who is interested. (The same is true of the last movie I posted here, *Five Finger Exercize* ). I'd like to know what clued you in to the answer. Richard Egan?

Willis -- Jim Harley in *Air Force One* (1997)

A few more facts come in: Inquiries sent to a contact in the city where the checks were mailed reveal that they were cashed at a farmers' market in a Black part of town that catered mostly to Black customers. As the wife suspected, the deceased executive may have been routing the funds to this woman, but now there was a possibility that there was an interracial relationship. The lawyer still needed to know what the author could tell him about it. Finally, through the wife, an appointment is set for him to meet with the author in the pleasent garden on his estate.
