    And the nervous bounty hunter in the bar. Could do without the soppy girl tho'

    Dances with Wolves - not strictly a western but Kev at his best

    Who supported and voted for the Democrats.. :?

    @Le Commentateur - you should definitely watch Red Beard. Its more grown up, less action, a turning point for Kurosawa imo.


    Wayne claimed in his Playboy interview to have been a socialist during his years at college, and he admitted voting for Democratic President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the 1936 presidential election. In the same interview he also expressed admiration for Democratic President Harry S Truman.[26] However, for most of his career he was a vocally conservative Republican. He took part in creating the Motion Picture Alliance for the Preservation of American Ideals in February 1944 and was elected president of that organization in 1947. He was an ardent anti-communist, and vocal supporter of the House Un-American Activities Committee. In 1952, he made Big Jim McLain to show his support for the anti-communist cause.

    Soldier Blue

    For me, at the age of 14, this film shook the glamour out of the old Cowboys and Indians fantasy and replaced it with a chilling image of the horrors of genocide.

    Thinly veiled Vietnam protest, probably, and very likely not a very well made film, but it did its job with me.
