Just shows what a decent actor Lon was with a good script and directors. Shame he didn't get more challenging roles - and he couldn't kick the demon drink.
Sublime excena del western y gigante GARY COOPER y posiblemente el más grande western de todos los tiempos, Honestidad complicidad credibilidad sinceramente, 🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
I don't think Mart let Kane down in the same selfish way as the other townsfolk (although Kane might well have thought so). Mart was right about being a liability if and when the trouble started, so maybe what really got to Kane was his former mentor's cynical despair and loss of faith, his belief that "it's all for nothing." For Kane that would have cut much deeper than the selfishness and apathy of the townsfolk -- especially so as Mart was genuinely concerned for him and totally sincere in his advice. Wonderful how the scripting and the acting conveyed so much in such a short scene.
Please dont use a timeless classic of western cinema to propagate your own senseless conspiracy theories. Its unbecoming of anyone of good moral standing
If the gunfight had taken place during a full moon rather than at half moon the old sheriff would have turned into a werewolf and killed the bad guys in a few minutes. None of the bad guys had silver bullets in their guns.
Just saw the film, this has been stuck with me the whole day
Just watched this movie for the first time today. Excellent film. Love this scene.
The greatest western ever made and Cooper's greatest roll.

Same with his father.
Absolutely a Best Supporting Actor caliber performance from Chaney

Nothing has changed. During "Covid," all the cowards just went along. Those of us who stood up were totally on our own.
I'm partly convinced watching this movie on a loop when I was a kid gave me what it took to stick it out. 👌
As an Independent thinker I feel like Will Kane too often.
Well said, Tip!
