I think Jack Palance makes the film as the gunslinger<BR/><BR/>The film used to get shown a lot at the Students Union and borrowed frequently from the library where I used to work<BR/><BR/>I just remember seeing a biog. of Alan Ladd on telly years ago and there was an old interview with Jean Arthur. She walked around in the film Shane barefoot as the heels she wore made her taller than Alan Ladd and he didn't like it. Hence barefeet...Louisefeministahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08279991897445225597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21995284.post-1163506041361496412006-11-14T12:07:00.000+00:002006-11-14T12:07:00.000+00:00I stand corrected, I will edit the post to say Cas...I stand corrected, I will edit the post to say Castro!<BR/><BR/>But what do you think of Shane?

They sure don't make tough guys like that anymore...<BR/><BR/>Btw: Che! is an ok film. Sorry to be pedantic....But it was Jack that played Castro and Omar Sharif played Che.<BR/><BR/>Oh and he was good in Bagdad Cafe.Louisefeministahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08279991897445225597noreply@blogger.com
