Whole day today! Boy, I remember buddy Baab in the late 70s, telling me of this western actor. That how he and my dad would walk miles to the cinema to watch westerns of John Wayne, Buster Crabbe, Roy Rogers, Ronald Reagan, Randolph Scott, Rory Calhoun, etc.
cool

Fonda and Stewart could play so many roles.

Kirk Douglas and Quinn were winners

Didn't like John Wayne, too much 'merican macho.

Jack Elam never lived long ... lol

Randolph Scott was gay as a three dollar bill.
He reminds me of bravos and emir.

My only comment was that when I found out about him,
I couldn't see him as a tough guy in westerns.
There was a feminine trait to him.

No offense to your daughter,"Gender preference does not define you. Your spirit defines you."
It doesn't matter if you're black, white, gay, straight, come from different countries, different language... every single person is significant and is meaningful.
