I just finished Red River with John Wayne....again.

I still remember watching this one with my older sister in the Paramount Theater in Abilene when I was just a little shaver. I have watched it many times since and enjoyed it each and every time.
I watched The Duke in Eldorado last night. Not his greatest movie but not bad either.

Watched "Used Cars" with Kurt Russell and Jack Warden last night on Crackle for the 1st time in a few years.It's still really funny!

Last night, To Have and Have Not.
Bogey and Bacall.

Last night, To Have and Have Not.
Bogey and Bacall.

I like anything with Bogart in it, but that’s a classic. “You know how to whistle don’t you?”

Right up there with Casablanca and The Maltese Falcon!

You got that right Ken.
Casablanca is one of my top fives.

With the virus shutting down all the sports, I had to rummage thru my pile of western DVDs to find something to watch. Watched "Crossfire Trail" last night. It does not get any better than Tom Selleck, with a Gus cowboy hat, A Smith & Wesson top break, and a Winchester Centennial model. I picked up the 3 movie set last summer at a garage sale for $3. I can sit there with the Blue Ray player going thru the surround sound with a margarita in hand and say "virus, what virus?"

Monty Walsh, one of the greatest ever made.

Yep, I liked both of them. Lee Marvin was one of my all-time favorites and Selleck is tops on my current favorites list.

Little known fact - both Monte Walsh and Shane were based on novels of the same names written by author Jack Schaefer.

Ken

Yes they were. The 2 Monte Walsh movies, the Lee Marvin one from 1970 and the Tom Selleck from 2002 are actually very similar with many of the same scenes because they follow the book closely. I would be hard pressed to pick a favorite, one or the other.

Found myself watching Fargo again the other day when it came on. Also Uncle Buck is one I can watch again and again. No Country For Old Men is another one that I watch when I catch it on one of the movie channels. Young Frankenstein is one I enjoy from time to time also.

[steve99f]

Gotta like most anything Tom Selleck is in especially westerns, with the exception of those commercials he's doing now.

A 60's movie, "The Bedford Incident" with Richard Widmark playing a destroyer captain and Sidney Poitier playing a newspaper man is pretty good. A cold war thriller.

I rewatch a lot of oldies every time they’re on television, like The Maltese Falcon and Casablanca for example. To me those are some all-time classics. Some of the ones from the more recent past I enjoy re-watching include Ferris Buehler’s Day Off, American Graffiti, Forrest Gump, Back to the Future, and Pirates of the Carribean. Never tire of Tombstone either. One of the best Westerns ever IMHO and closer to actual events than any other re-telling of that story.

If you can find it, The Good Old Boys with Tommy Lee Jones, Sissy Spacek, Francis McDormand and Sam Shepard (plus a very young Matt Damon) is excellent. It was a made-for-television movie so it’s a little hard to find a DVD but I found it on-line for free here https://archive.org/details/TheGoodOldBoys1995. (Warning - almost 2 hours long. Took a couple minutes to download but my internet is slow.).

Ken

Thanks Ken
I’ll see if I can get that somewhere, really peaked my interest, because those are some of my favorite actors. An in law was good friends with Sam Shepard. All star cast.

Lyle, you can find copies in DVD format from on-line sellers. Check the usual suspects - Amazon.com, Walmart.com, and eBay. Be sure you get the right movie though, with Tommy Lee Jones in it. There’s another movie of the same title so take care and don’t order the wrong one.

Mark—my favorite comedic scene possibly of all time is in Young Frankenstein when Gene Wilder has them lock his character in the dungeon cell with the monster!! I belly laugh every time!

Just a few of my favorites:

McClintock

Big Jake

Rio Bravo

Maverick (Mel Gibson)

Murphy’s Romance

Young Frankenstein

King Pin

Groundhog Day

Shawshank Redemption

First 3 Indiana Jones

Ghost Dog, The way of the Samauri —so strange I have to watch it every time I happen to come across it

Sideways

The Chronicles of Riddick

Welcome to Collinwood

Goodfellas

The original Pink Panthers (Peter Sellers was a comedic genius)

The Goonies

The Jerk.. (and that’s All I need)...

Many awesome ones everyone else posted also..

Good for you - I’m sure he enjoyed it. Reminds me a couple years ago my in-laws were here and some of the kids put Tombstone in the DVD player. When they got ready to leave, my sister-in-law wouldn’t go until it was over - she had started watching it with the kids. (I call them kids - they’re in their 40’s. ) She had never seen it before either but when it ended she said it was one of the best movies she ever saw.

Finally got around to watching this un' the other night (Hacksaw Ridge). One of the best i've ever watched. Mel Gibson is an absolute genius director when it comes to these genre's.
Magnificent Seven is also a favorite, and the Captain America movies.

[carrmillus]

...my favorite is "THE SEARCHERS"-John Wayne!!!!!.......I watch it at least once a month!!!!....... .......................

[KLJ77]

I agree, Willy...Hacksaw Ridge was one of the most realistic war movies I've ever seen. The courage, stamina and willingness to continue to go back up that cliff and literally carry his buddies back to safety is incredible. It's a shame we didn't know about what Dawson did long before this movie came out. At least I wasn't aware of it.

[WillyCamaro]

Same here Ken, same here.

Truly thankful to Mr. Gibson for bringing his story to the big screen. Now i just need to add Braveheart to my collection, been on my bucket list for a long time. After that, have a pile more to get through.

[Steve Warden]

I'll be honest--first time I've watched "Tombstone"
Really enjoyed it. I'm very reluctant to watch R rated movies. Seems like most movie makers are going for the gratuitous nudity and/or blood, guts, and gore, and trying to cram as many F-bombs into one sentence as they can.
Before watching this, I reviewed why it received the R rating. All seemed to point out there was nothing gratuitous, but accurate for the time.
I agree.
I rented it from our library. May have to buy my own copy.
