“Liberty Valence” played by Lee Marvin with John Wayne in the film, “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence.”
Valence was one mean dude.
“Valence was one mean dude.” — Indeed! Marvin did a superb job in that role! Especially played against the greenhorn lawyer Ranse Stoddard (Jimmie Stewart) and the rough hombre Tom Doniphon (John Wayne). I LOVE the part where Stoddard is teaching a civics lesson to the illiterate townspeople and school kids — every time I see that scene, it brings home how much we’ve lost as a country.
