Rio Bravo best western ever made. You got that 100 percent correct.
It just had been released in a 2 dvd set.

Brilliant.

They just don't make 'em like that anymore.

Here's to the Duke!

"Mi Raices Estan Aqui" - translates to "My roots are here," Duke sez "My ruts are buried here," it annoyed me then and it annoys me now.

My dad had this album on 8 track when I was a kid! It's hilarious - sadly, the humor isn't intentional.

John Ford's, "The Searchers" with John Wayne is far and away the best thing Wayne has ever done.
BTW thanks for this. It's a real hoot. My Grandpa had it.
