Alpo Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Jimmy Stewart western. At the end, in the climactic battle scene, he has his right hand all bandaged up, and is resting his '73 Winchester on his right wrist and shooting with his left hand. They showed THAT MUCH of the movie, on a TV set, in Walk, Don't Run. I thought I knew all his westerns, but that did not look familiar. The dweeb in the movie announced to the room at large, "Oh, I've seen this programme before. That's the man that did it," and the cut to Jimmy shooting the rifle. I spelled "programme" with an E, because the dweeb is an Englishman, so that is the correct spelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boulder Canyon Bob# 32052L Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 The Man From Laramie. The scene you're talking about is around the 2 min mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kihrk4zSBTk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpo Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 Yep, that's the scene. Thanks. At first I thought you meant two minutes into the movie. I'm thinking, "No. He's shoveling salt at two minutes". Then I realized you meant two minutes into the clip. I'm tired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Always liked that movie. It's got a lot of the Western "tropes" (is that the word?): the schoolmarm (or maybe the storekeeper's daughter); the stranger with a past, lot tougher than he looks; the grasping cattle baron, wants to take over the last of the smallholders; the tough old holdout (in this case a woman); the no-account son of the baron, all full of hostility and wrongheadedness....has it all!

Amos Dumas, SASS #8447 L Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I thought that was from "Northwest Passage" with Ruth Roman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpo Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 Northwest Passage was Spencer Tracy and Marcus Welby MD. I think, maybe, you mean The Far Country, where Jimmy and Walter Brennan take a herd of cows up to Alaska. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rye Miles #13621 Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I just saw The Far Country the other night and Jimmy Stewart's hand is bandaged up at the end. Maybe it was that movie?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amos Dumas, SASS #8447 L Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Alpo +1 for the nice correction, it was The Far Country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hoss Carpenter, SASS Life 7843 Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I thought it was The Naked Spur! Cheers, Hoss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Tom Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Do my eyes decieve me, or is Jimmy Stewarts left hand bandaged earlier in that clip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Bill Mathewson, 37826 Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Do my eyes decieve me, or is Jimmy Stewarts left hand bandaged earlier in that clip? Nope your eyes are OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
