...even I know this one.
ReplyDeleteIt's a real classic.
DeleteOne of my favorites especially De Kelley as Morgan Earp
ReplyDeleteHe's fun to watch in a western. Lee Van Cleef is my favorite.
DeleteWhat a great cast. I watched so many westerns with my Dad growing up. I don't know if I saw this one, but I love watching them as they remind me of him. Stay cool and enjoy the start to your weekend Nita.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I've repotted the rest of the plants I picked up earlier in the week and hope they survive this heat. We're in drought and neeeed rain!
DeleteI remember seeing this one on TV. Stay cool. I know you are a tad cooler than me, but that's not saying much.
ReplyDeleteWe're consistently having temps under 100 now, so it feels like a cold wave lol Our "feels like" temps are up as high as 109, but the temps themselves aren't breaking records any more. We may even get some rain next week. I've been amazed to see how hot it is where you are. I'm seeing predictions of tornadoes in the Minneapolis area. Tornadoes! And Europe is literally on fire. This weather!
DeleteI do like this version of the story. With great actors. Have a nice day today.
ReplyDeleteYes, casting in this is wonderful.
DeleteWow, this takes me back. A great western!
ReplyDeleteAn old-fashioned western, well done.
DeleteOh, thank you! First time I saw the original. This one of my very fav episodes in Star Trek!
ReplyDeleteYes, I thought it was so sweet they included that plot in one of the episodes :)
DeleteA classic I've seen it several times but I don't think I ever noticed Kelley was Morgan Earp.
ReplyDeleteStar Trek fans know :)
