“Stagecoach” is a blockbuster.......but then I watch “Shane”.....
Those characters are just as memorable.....especially the boy.
“Predator” is the perfect movie.
Remember the mousy whiskey drummer?
“Donald Meek, forever typecast as mousy, timorous or browbeaten Casper Milquetoasts. He stood at 5 ft. 6 in. in his boots and weighed a mere 81 pounds. However, the little Glaswegian’s personal history rather belied his gormless image on the silver screen. By the age of fourteen, Donald had joined an acrobatic team (”The Marvells”) on the piano wire as a top mounter. He accompanied the troupe on their tour of the U.S. but sustained several compound fractures in a fall and had to quit. After spending six months on crutches, he joined the U.S. 6th Pennsylvania Regiment and saw action during the Spanish-American War in Cuba, was wounded and lost his hair after a bout of yellow fever. This did not deter him from re-enlisting at the onset of World War I. He went on to serve with the Canadian Highlanders as a corporal, but, to his consternation, never got any further than Toronto.”

I like Claire Trevor in anything, but her best movie was Born To Kill.
