Leonard Nimoy - Liberty Valance - Music Video

Leonard Nimoy cast as "Liberty Valance" and the "Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" and any other role in between ; )

Medley of parts played by him in westerns.

FAQ

1. The clips are (in order of first appearance) from Catlow; The Virginian: Show Me a Hero; A Man Called Shenandoah: Run, Killer Run; The Virginian: Showdown; Bonanza: Under Attack and Colt.45: Night of Decision.

2. "Liberty Valance" is a western with John Wayne from 1962. At the time we made the video, Margitta and I only knew the song from a country music CD she owned.

3. The video is a mixture from westerns he appeared in and that we had fun thinking of as doing our own little movie that we "cast" him in.

This interesting because the gene pitney theme was never used in the movie because john ford didnt like pop songs in movies

@spacepatrolman Thanks for the info.

"From the moment a girl gets to be full-grown the very first thing she learns

When two men go out to face each other only one returns"

I loved the way you had Nimoy play both parts...good and bad guy. Neat.

[leony331]

Thank you. It was fun doing the video, especially the part where he shoots at himself ;)

Try this: Google his name, look for any information as to his management people, then contact them requesting to send thenm the photo by registered mail for an autograph. I'm sure they'll try to accommodate you!! Who knows, they might even surprise you with some xtras, like additional photos or something. Good luck!! You're a wise young kid, able to see something of value in a person who's not like today's "celebrities". Stay sweet.

pitney hadn't finished the song before the early release of valance...spock had no part in my favorite movie...lee marvin was liberty...gene's song was released after movie & became a hit on its own...

nicely done video, enjoyed this.

Nice job! This is one of the best composites I've seen on YouTube. I hope you're going into a career in film editing. This is pretty artsy, and a real tribute to Mr. Nimoy. I know one of the moves is Catlow, what are the others. And hey, Gene Pitney rules!

[HolyMotherofGrid]

This is actually almost music!!! Perhaps the best song sung by a member of the original Trek series i've ever heard.
