Wolfgang, SASS #53480 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I just watched Lee Van Cleef shoot the Rifle Man. Maybe the rifle man will die and Lee Van Cleef will take over the series ? . . . . . . . Just my weird an wicked imagination. It is always fun to see him in these old roles before Sergio Leone made him a lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfgang, SASS #53480 Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Nope. The rifle man lived . . . the sherriff shot down Lee Van Cleef. Damn . . . it could have become the. . . "Lee Van Cleef" SHOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfgang, SASS #53480 Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 He had lots of small parts as "side kicks" to the main "bad guy". Liberty Valance, High Noon, . . . etc. . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the guy as a actor and what not, but I cant help but see a rat when I look at his face. Just the way his face and eyes are I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clay Mosby Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 He even had a small part with Lee Marvin on an episode of The Twilight Zone! I liked his acting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Brules Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Wasn't Lee Van Cleef an accountant before he became an actor? I really like Lee Van Cleef. He made a great western bad man and he was a guest on a lot of tv shows. I remember him and Strother Martin as Lee Marvin's accomplices in "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance."

Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Now that is a good commercial. He must have been a ZOMBIE for all of the movies that he got killed off as a character. But he did make a convincing BAD DUDE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Brules Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I saw our boy, Lee, today on an episode of "Gunsmoke." He was "Rad," a homesteader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Morningwood Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 He even had a small part with Lee Marvin on an episode of The Twilight Zone! I liked his acting. The episode was called "The Grave." I just watched it the other day. Good cast. Lee Marvin, Lee Van Cleef, Strother Martin, and James Best. Couple of other recognizable character actors. Very well done and shows the kind of talent Serling was able to attract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
