I liked Jack and all the different characters he played and his humor in “Support Your Local Sheriff “. He helped make the picture what it was. He aged brilliantly with the characters he played, genuine.
jack Elam's was one of the best actors in tv movies the should have done an AFI film tribute to him he is one of my favorite actors he should be in every hall of fame in the industry thanks jack Elam for all the entertainment R.I,P
Jack was THE BEST! He could play any role: good guy, bad guy, sidekick, buffoon, crazy or serious. They broke the mold when the made William "Jack" Elam.
As a kid in the late 50s and early 60s I always wanted Jack to be gunned down as a villain. I started liking him later when he played good guy on Gunsmoke protecting some orphan kids and other funny good guy roles as in Night of the Grizzly and on Home Improvement was the last time I saw him. Great Actor and decent man.
Jack had what was called a wall eye. The muscle that moves the eyeball to the right had been cut loose from the eyeball, and back then there was not much that could be done for the eye. I've had seven operations on my eyes, 6 on one and one on the other. There will be some movement on the eye, probably by the muscle on the other side of the eye and the other 2 muscles, one on top and one on the bottom.
WOW!!! ONE OF THE VERY BEST OF OLD WESTERN ACTORS.SERGIO LEONE CAST MR.JACK ELAM IN ONCE UPON............. CLASSIC STATUS.ALONG WITH BRUCE DERN AND CLAUDE AKINS, JACK ELAM WAS GOOD IN THE BONANZAS AND THE GUNSMOKES AND EVERY WESTER IN BETWEEN.
Ya'know, for years that quandary has been keeping me awake at nights, and now someone is here to explain it. Unfortunately I already have things planned for today which are much more important, such as buying some toothpicks and taking a - it rhymes with pump. I'll be sure to watch this later....some time.
Always liked Jack Elam,he was one of those character actors you knew the face but didn't always know is name. There were others like him Dub Taylor,Peter Whitney,Strother Martin,Andy Devine,Edger Buchanan, I could go on but these actors weren't times what made the movies rather than the headline actors.
I didn't watch 10 seconds of this video but wanted to comment. I enjoyed both these actors and would like to know the scoop of the disrespect you advertise. But 17 minutes? To tell what no doubt could be told in 2 to 4? I have a real life to live. Bye.
Westerns create a cultural context. There's a depth of mythology involved, with it's own archetypal figures, astute and insightful narratives and a world of worthy excerpts and worthwhile quotations.
Classic Hollywood actor,and one I always looked out for in all westerns. R.I.P Mr.Elam.
He was my very favorite…no one did crazy like him!❤

TWO of my favorite old time actors!.......Both were "Superstars" in my mind!......RIP.....'Big Cheyenne'...&...'Cool' Eye Jack!!!
His role in Cannonball Run will always be the scenes that make me chuckle. One of those bring me up when I'm feeling down kind of things. RIP
What a remarkable life. I have always liked Elam's acting. Thanks for a great bio on him!
Jack was amazing. In so many westerns he is the one character that made it more than just another western. And I loved him in "the Cannonball Run."
Sometimes goodbye isn't on the cards, pass n keep them alive in your heart. 💔🥀🙏
This video really sheds light on the deep bond between Clint Walker and Jack Elam.
Amazing man. Amazing talent. The depth of his real character is overhwhelming.
Jack Elam was one of my favorite bad assss actors.
Big fan of Jack,gunsmoke, movies!

When I was a kid, he always played the villian in westerns. I didn't know his name, but he was ALWAYS recognizable because of his crazy eyes! 😅
A great actor. Rest in peace.

A great actor!
I cannot forget his great Hamlet and Macbeth. Great performances...

My favorite character actor! R. I. P. sir you did good.
I saw him in Once upon a time in the west. Classic movie ❤

Totally Agree!.......Loved Bruce, Claude, and Jack!
He was. A Great 😃 good Bad man🎉
Jack at the top with all the other greats.
Such a lovely man 😊❤
Jack, what a great character.
I always loved the JE characters back in the day.
One of the greatest western stars.
It's astounding that such a big strong, heroic type can be so fragile.

Jack always brought the best out of the film and his fellow actors - the loved badman!
Top Billing for this great character actor. Thanks Jack nuff said
His comedic prowess appeared to overshadow his villainous roles. Support Your Local Sheriff and Support Your Local Gunfighter are prime examples.
He was a great actor and cowboy ...
15 minutes into this video before we finally start to hear why Clint didn't attend the funeral!!!!!!

Awesome thank you
You didn't mention Jack as a card player - Nobody could beat him
The best reason
Shame about the Lone Ranger picture in the 50's and 60s tv western part.
Considering he was about 40 when he did The Twilight Zone he did a good job playing a crazy old man.
Times are what they are... in later years if you cross a friend the results are often unexpected... yet final.
Think!
Wasn't that one guy on home improvement on one of them episodes?

C'mon - He was the town drunk in HIGH NOON with Gary Cooper in 1951 - He was on his way by 51
Why look for the living amongst the dead
Let the dead bury their dead

Great actor the good actor nearly all gone all computerised these days not worth watching
He was 70ish and in poor health.
15 minutes wasted, waiting for you to tell me the reason Clint did not go to the funeral? Click-bait, thumbs down!
Night of the Grizzly 🎉❤
I LOST FROM 40 SIZE TO 30 WAST Apple CIDAR IN ONE YEAR
He was to I'll to travel.
click bait
Downvoted for being narrated by AI
Reason why Clint Walker didn’t make it to his funeral because he has old timers
You wouldn't understand
