I attempt to watch any movie or tv show with Strother Martin. I’m attempting to identify many of the great character actors who participated in hundreds of westerns and other flicks in the fifties and sixties. Martin was certainly in many. And always memorable.
To: djone
One of the ten best Western movies of all time.

Jimmy Stewart was too old for the part, but the supporting cast was incredible. Andy Devine was great. Lee Marvin was incredible. Strother Martin again proved he was one of the greatest character actors of the 1960s and 70s. Lee Van Cleef was still the best 60’s villain after Bruce Dern. And John Wayne....Damn it, he was John Wayne!

Looking at that picture:

Lee Van Cleef, Lee Marvin, John Wayne, and Jimmy Stewart...now those were REAL MEN, not like today's stars who have to fellate their producers to get a movie role. About the only star who I can even imagine being man enough to get a role like this is Russell Crowe, and he's from New Zealand.

John Wayne considered “Red River” as his best film. If you ever look at some of the famous pictures of Wayne, he wears a belt buckle with the Red River “D” brand on it.
I have also read that he used the same brand on his own ranch.

Driftless : “I attempt to watch any movie or tv show with Strother Martin.” Interesting Idea. Ever notice how many places Glenn Strange turns up in westerns?

Well, since he played the barkeep in numerous “Gunsmoke” episodes, quite a few I’d guess.

I didn't capitalize The last S to make it harder to get the pun. uh wait....I'm on FR.....never mind.

Watched this movie in a drive-in in 1966 in Columbus, GA with my future wife, sitting in a maroon 1964 Mustang.

Burt Bachrach, who wrote the song, said the song was inspired by the movie. That’s the only connection.
But I really liked the song, too!
