after watchng this for the first time a few days ago i must admit this is now one of my favorite films of all time and i'm only 18 any one know any simelar films
@lookie1992 If you like b/w movies I highly recommend `Some Like it Hot` starring Marylin Monroe, Tony Curtis and Jack Lemon, you will laugh your socks off .. x
These were the kind of movies that gave America her character and values filled with honor and righteousness, however today Hollywood is like a woman during her period.
to FrankClanton: they should have cast you and two funeral home corpses--that my grandniece (whom was visiting over in the uk) say she saw you fuck-that would have been perfect casting and right up your alley-or ass....
I think that the main message in this film is the fact that Stewart took Waynes glory. Wayne always looked out for the opportunity to shoot Marvin. But Stewart done it. Dude.
also featured bad guys I loved to hate, Lee Van Cleef,who went on to "spaghetti westerns"(A Few Dollars More,etc) and Strother Martin,who's claim to fame is for the line
"What we've got here...is... failure ...to communicate" (Cool Hand Luke)
Both Wayne and Stewart were far too old to be playing young men. Paul Newman and Steve McQueen should have been cast, and the film should have been made on location in Monument Valley in Technicolor.
John Wayne= GW Bush,rough around the edges,not real erudite,hated by some and misunderstood by most,understands what we are up against ,does the necessary dirty work from the shadows, silently, quietly. and does not brag about it.Takes hits but is most concerned about protecting those he cares for...
@watcherofolde That's an insult to John Wayne, who was a good actor, whatever else you might say about him. Bush got four thousand American soldiers killed in an unnecessary war in Iraq and still didn't catch Osama. He's earned his place in the list of the five worst presidents in American history, and looking at the way things are going right now, he may just have destroyed the Republican Party as well. Come to think of it... that might improve his historical standing....
If the movie is a metaphor--who would the characters stand for--right in the here and now? I say;Liberty Valance=Terrorism, Islamofacist "bullies"...Jimmy Stewart= Clinton and Obama... educated,talks the good talk..Good ole'guys,popular,doing good deeds.. BUT basically ineffectual against the evil they face...
I saw this when it came out.James Stewart knew he would lose and probably die, bur "rifht and truth" stood up to Wrong and Lies" .It was obvious who would win until Liberty Valance fell dead (shot from the side by a hidden John Wayne). This gave the public hope though they didn't know who really killed the evil.
he did want her but gave her up cause he knew he loved his horse more and two old hags couldnt fit inside his condo. I think andy devine and the duke were a item?
Did you know who wrote this song? Yes Burt who had many hits including one on angie dickerson who later played in the duke's finest movie rio bravo! pilgrim dont forget he was the toughest man west of the picket line.
i dont care of westerns, but i love the singer and the song!

He was far too old to play a young lawyer. Anthony Perkins would have been a better choice, with Steve McQueen as Doniphon.
