Another Wayne movie that is almost completely historically accurate (props, clothing, scenes, weapons, saddles) is Rio Grande.
Oh okay. I was thinking about how close they got with mostly wild firing and people being as careful and wary as possible. Some of the shots were definitely Hollywooded most of the battle was pretty accurate.By unrealistic I mean like when Blue Bonnet (lol) shoots a couple guys with a shotgun it lifts them off their feet and blows them through a wall. As with any gun, when a person is shot it doesn't even knock them off balance - let alone blow them through a wall hahaActually the fighting scenes in that one are fairly accurate, the movie itself is relatively cliche but also one of my favorites.I know it is a bit cliche, and the fighting scenes are unrealistic...but I can't help liking the movie Open Range.
I was a little kid when Clints spaghetti westerns were being shot. I loved them, because I thought he was such a bad ass
He was highly overrated as an actor, he did one thing and one thing good, that was playing John Wayne. That should burn some biscuits also......Another Wayne movie that is almost completely historically accurate (props, clothing, scenes, weapons, saddles) is Rio Grande.
I find it difficult to like John Wayne. Sorry, I know that will burn a lot of people's britches. I find him to be highly overrated as an actor, and hard to like.
Wonderful movie, mostly fictional Hollywood but another one of my favorites. Loved Will Geer in that one pilgrim.........
Clint Eastwood is terrific director.
My favorite movie by him is Gran Torino. It has everything.
What was that Clint western... he was an old fart that can't shoot anymore... but agrees to go after some bad guys anyway

Ah... but that was the point of the movie.Clint Eastwood is terrific director.

I thought it was an okay movie. A lot of racist name calling. LOL! I really prefer his older movies though. The Unforgiven was pretty good though.

He was a bitter, angry racist bastard who pretty much hated everyone but his wife. (And dog)
By the end of the movie, he sacrificed his own life to protect two young kids of the same race as he fought against in Korea.

I'm not familiar with most of the actors who played in the movie (a bit before my time), but I liked the old man who hunted bears. He was a riot.

I hate seeing Clint Eastwood getting so old. I will always remember him as "Blondie."
