I take it you don’t have Netflix or anything of the sort? Firecreek was one of the best westerns I’ve ever seen. It was one my “John-Wayne-lookalike” father’s favorites too. And he was a huge fan of westerns. Jimmy Stewart, Henry Fonda, and the beautiful Inger Stevens...
Here’s a short clip from the ending. You might want to skip it if you plan on oneday seeing the movie.

I have a problem with downloading movies. I live in a rural area and the only high speed internet available here is satellite.
I have a limit of 5 gigabytes a month. That is adequate for most purposes but downloading movies would eat that up fast.
I like several of his pictures, but one I vividly remember from when I was a kid is “Hatari”. What an adventure movie, my brother and I saw that film at least three or four times and boy did we want to go to the Africa.
Duke was the greatest movie star of all time.
Quiet Man...Rio Bravo..so many...
Cahill....it’s our go to movie when we feel like watching a movie but not sure what to watch. I miss John Wayne, they don’t make men like that anymore.
Yep, The Searchers. Or Hondo.
Is ‘Wayne’ really John Day’s middle name???
bttt
Even this one where he portrayed 'Jinjuss' Khan?
Yep, even that one. LOL!
