Undertaking that act of "clean-up" also included removing all posts that were in reply to the offending message or posts that quoted parts of the offending message. The missing replies were not necessarily objectionable- they were only "collateral damage." And the posters whose posts went missing are likely not in any jeopardy of being reprimanded. > > Kyle In Hollywood Curious? How would you know this?

WESTERNS: why such a love 'em or hate 'em genre?

Sure, fair enough, Somehow the Earp story has never really grasped my imagination the way it's supposed to, and I always get bored watching *My Darling Clementine*. Plus, Henry Fonda always seems to look kind of sulky in this film (actually, in quite a few films). > But I suppose we ought to include *Clementine*; not a personal favourite, but I can see a case for its being on this list. > > Edited by: misswonderly on Feb 10, 2011 10:56 PM A conservative's take on Westerns.

Hi Goddess, I can't really express in words as well as you how much I really love this movie with Coop. I bought a bootlegged DVD about 2 years ago that was the VHS copy transferred to disc. It's OK but I would gladly spend dearly for a Warner Archive copy. I did buy Bright Leaf from Warner. I'm sure you are aware of the awesome shot making in the Hanging Tree. The tone is set in the movie when Rune is running from the miners for thievery and he is climbing up the hill only to find Doc Frail hovering above him and all else. An awesome shot... And, of the course, the shot with him and Elizabeth on the Hill when she first sees him is awesome, too. But his killing of Frenchy is most satisfying. Your review was wonderful and again thank you... Jake
