Try "Across the Wide Missouri (1951) with Clark Gable or "Drums Along the Mohawk" with Henry Fonda and Claudette Colbert. Both are Great films with Indians.Both are on TCM at times.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - "Stuart Rosenberg", a prolific director of series television and theatrical films who partnered with Paul Newman on the widely popular prison drama "Cool Hand Luke" and several other movies, has died at 79.
Rosenberg, who also directed "The Amityville Horror," died of a heart attack Thursday at his home in Beverly Hills, according to his son, Benjamin.
Rosenberg's first film was "Cool Hand Luke," the 1967 drama starring Newman as an inmate on a chain gang who becomes an unlikely hero.
"He was as good as anybody I ever worked with," Newman said in a statement.
"Cool Hand Luke" was nominated for four Academy Awards, with George Kennedy taking home a statute for best supporting actor. The film also spawned the famous line delivered by Strother Martin as a guard captain: "What we've got here is failure to communicate."
Rosenberg was nominated for a Directors' Guild Award for the film, but lost to Mike Nichols, who made "The Graduate" the same year.
After "Cool Hand Luke," Rosenberg directed Jack Lemmon and French actress Catherine Deneuve in "The April Fools." He worked with Newman again on "WUSA," "Pocket Money," and "The Drowning Pool."
Rosenberg also directed Robert Redford in the 1980 prison film "Brubaker" and Mickey Rourke in 1984's "The Pope of Greenwich Village." "Amityville Horror" in 1979 was probably his most financially successful film; it has inspired seven sequels to date.
His last film was "My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys" in 1991.
Rosenberg had started out by directing episodes of television series in the 1950s, starting with "Decoy," which starred Beverly Garland as a New York City policewoman.
He collected more than 300 TV directing credits for such dramatic series' as "The Untouchables," "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" and "The Twilight Zone," and won an Emmy Award in 1963 for an episode of "The Defenders."
Rosenberg is survived by his wife, Margot, and son Benjamin, an assistant editor who worked with his father on many of his later films.

>>"Thank you Moira, Your giving Mongo a little competition."<<
I know what you mean about the forums treasure (Mr. Mongo)
I said that with tongue planted firmly in cheek.
But I did like your Kudos to Mr. Douglas...

I watched an old epsiode of Gunsmoke with "Bette Davis" called "The Jailer". Boy these old Actresses can really show these newer Actresses how to act.
I Love looking at old TV shows and finding some Classic stars or Newer stars, learning the ropes.

Paul Douglas reminds me of a Gentle Giant. Always a great performer.Love "The Big Lift" with Montgomery Clift.and "Fourteen Hours" and of course "Panic in the Streets" and many others. Shame he was only 52 when he died.
Thank you Moira, Your giving Mongo a little competition.

$3.75 for a bottle of water...Kills me...
There is one theater I go to that has a Starbucks in the building next store and they let you bring in stuff from Starbucks into the Movie Theater (which suprised me).
Some theaters have opened Burger Kings inside the lobby and they charge twice as much. That's why I usually wait for the DVD.

Lancaster hurt his knee real bad during one scene. He told Frankenheimer that he had to stop the filming. Frankenheimer said forget it. So after Lancaster is shot while running across a bridge,he limps for the rest of the film. From Burt's Bio "Daring to Reach"
