  1. The first 30 years, I thought this was a pretty cheesy film. Then it hit me.

    Unlike some of Clint's other spaghetti westerns, I found myself watching

    this one from start to finish everytime it was on. This is a true epic and,

    to me, quite an elegant piece. I especially enjoy the scenes of each side

    fighting over the bridge. The trenches were a nice touch. Nice musical

    score in the trenches and bridge scenes as well as in the prisoner camp.


    I believe this film, of all his westerns, will stand the test of time.


    I bow and thank all of you B-)
  2. Not Robert Ryan, Franklin. That wrinkled brow is similar though.

    Ryan's and this gent's careers overlapped. Ryan had a slighter build

    than this stocky fellow. Though their careers overlapped, I usually

    associate Ryan with 50's-60's and this fellow with 30's-50's. Both

    worked full careers (1 from 30's to 78, 1 from 40's to 73).

    For what it's worth, I used to always get this guy mixed up with
    Slim Pickens whenever I tried to recall one or the other, though
    they're easy to tell apart.

  3. Well , to me, your latest monacled wonder could be Nigel Bruce with lots of makeup.

    Though I don't recall having seen him with a cigar before. I'm sure it's a more obscure

    actor but there, I've said it. I'm done.
