Yes, great actor, great performance, great movie.

Compare to what passes as entertainment today.

Another great western: The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance.

As much as I like the classic John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, and other great westerns, ‘The Outlaw Josey Wales’ is my all time favorite.

He played such a bad guy in ‘How the West Was Won” that it took a train to kill him.

And it took seven top gunhands to get him in “The Magnificent Seven”.

Add the Searchers to that list and you have my 3 favorite westerns. Eli was great as Tuco. What’s sad is that they would never cast him in that role in today’s Hollywood. Can’t have an Anglo playing a Mexican. It violates all the liberal casting rules.
