For the record, I'm just an old cowboy who sees the world thru a different lens than most. One thing I have learned from putting one of my most favorite movie clips of all time onto RUclips, mainly for my enjoyment, is this.....the world is full of some rude, arrogant, ignorant, and opinionated sonsabitches who think their opinion is THE ONLY opinion that matters. Kinda sad! I ain't trying to win an Oscar for the film work folks, I'm just trying to share and enjoy a really cool scene from a cool cowboy movie! Again, for those who dont like it....WATCH SOMETHING ELSE! For those who do like it, ENJOY!
Squeaky Reed. I know Tom Selleck is an excellent actor and plays great cowboy roles such as Quigley Down Under. To me Monte Walsh was meant for Lee Marvin. Never should’ve remain this film. The clip was enjoyable to watch but the original will be my favorite.
squeaky Reed I did enjoy it and thanks. I'm an old cowboy myself. Worked cattle on divide creek out of Silt Colo. Worked for a man named Leonard Christianson, salt of the earth, and his wife Wilma cooked a hell of a ranch house lunch every day. I was foreman of the ranch and lived in a house across from the barns where we moved the cows who were ready to calve. At about midnight last of march in co. temp 15 below, Raymond our latest hire a kid out of New York wanting to get back to nature, came and woke me....a cow was in distress. I went over and pulled that calf (reached inside and grabbed the hooves and put my feet on her ass and pulled the calf out before it and she died). She then proceeded to prolapse. So I pushed her back together and yelled at Raymond (who was throwing up) to go get the Big needle and shoelaces we kept in the barn. I then proceeded to sow that cow together while being shoulder deep holding her internal parts. So long story short I, as a bartender I once told a couple of would be cowboys...…"if you've never laid shoulder deep in below zero temps. in the blood and afterbirth of calving, and sowing a cow up with one hand while your holding her prolapsed insides in with the other"......Maybe your just a guy who can ride a horse! lol
jim bishop Been there brother, even before I was considered a legal adult. I love everything about the cowboy life, even being shoulder deep in a prolapsed momma cow. I appreciate your kind words and the story, ain't many of us left!
Thanks man. Reminds me of a funny story. I was just turned 18 and we were feeding cows, and we knew we had an about year month old calf with scours. Well I spotted him and went to grab him by top of the back leg and throw him, I missed and all I got was tail. Off we went him dragging me through the mud and cow shit, with Ronny Hayes and old Leonard running behind yelling "hang on Geno". Well they finally caught up and we gave him some azimiacin. From then on I was considered a "hand"!!
As an old horseman myself I of course have an opinion. Selleck rides up clean as a whistle, spotless chaps, saddle gleaming, never been on a horse, those leather gloves, you can't get new ones that clean. And the topper they go thru the fence, man an beast in the dirt, up and bucking for a while longer. And when the horse calms down, it's not sweating, breathing hard and spick and span clean. Toms clothes could be worn to church. Every time I ever got bucked off, I was a mess, mashed hats, broken belts, shirts ripped and always dirty. Guess that's why I'm not in the movies.
You got to like Tom thou. What the movie. Makers doesn't know always comes thru the TV. Guns, horses, cows and rope, its funny . They did pretty good on LONESOME DOVE
Monte Walsh is a Great Book. Well written. Fantastic character, loyal, boyishly reckless, tough as nails, 100% Cowboy through and through, dead set in his ways. The guy that can see the job through or die trying. Lee Marvin played Monte Walsh back in the 70's and was as close to who and what Monte Walsh was as originally written. Because of Lee Marvin's similar personality traits to Monte Walsh. I believe the best version of this story is yet to be filmed. Take Care and God Bless
Only a handful of actors were ever, "born to play a cowboy." A far more difficult task to accomplish than most people can appreciate. Perhaps because they do it so naturally and with such fluidity. We have been fortunate to have this man entertaining us for all these decades. Thanks for the post, Squeaky.
ONLY A HANDFUL IS A LOW ESTIMATE. EASTWOOD WAYNE BEN JOHNSON TOMMY LEE DUVALL Jack Elam Lee van Cleef Gary Cooper Henry Fonda Glen Ford Walter Brennan Strother Martin Lee Marvin Jack parlance. Just to name a few
When Monte Walsh first came out, I didn’t like it . But now years later, I understand what it’s message was about. A man still has worth, even when people thing he’s old.
AMEN! That's what it's all about! I tell ppl all the time that I personally feel like I was born 200 yrs too late. I honestly feel that way.....so did ole Monty. That's why I love this movie!
I listen to Marty Robbins western songs a lot and I was thinking the other day that if he had lived to see this version of Monte Walsh, he would have been so in tune with all of it. The high jinks that were done, the comments made and standing for what was right and true. His song about the Strawberry Roan or Cowboy in a Continental Suit fits very well with this scene. I can also see him agreeing with the life style that was displayed in this move, as well as Crossfire Trail, and Last Stand at Sabre River. Those movies depict the songs and life style that Marty sang of so well. He painted pictures that one could envision in their minds eye of just what is shown here. Maybe he has watched it on the big screen in the sky and is laughing at all this, but feeling sad that this kind of life has come and gone, never to return. Thanks for the post and thanks to Marty Robbins for keeping the Old West and the Cowboy alive.
You aint kidding. Grew up on Marty Robbins and he could paint a picture in your mind. Music, like westerns, is dead. Not much good of either coming out these days!
@@carolmartin2503 out in the horse around standing alone, was an old Caballo the strawberry roan. Spivin bowlegs and long pigeon toes, pair of pig eyes and a long Roman nose. Little pin ears that were split at the tip, a big 44 brand was on his left hip.
Marty Robbins is still one of my favorite singers of all time. I might be a young’en, but I grew up listening to him on both the vinyl and 8 deck tapes. I’ve ridden my fair share of horses from dressage horses on the east coast, with Navajos chasing cattle in New Mexico, ranch horses in Montana, and several in between and enjoyed every ride and every experience: but nothing could truly compare to the life Mr. Robbins depicted in his songs. I salute Mr. Robbins, the days gone by, and all the honorable horseman of today!
Probably the best western of all time. There are many outstanding westerns but this one shows the end of an era. The end of the west and the cowboy. Sad
Not sure I agree with the best ever, but for me it certainly is the funniest horse breaking scene I have ever seen. Thanks for the upload, never seen it before 😂😂
Great scene for sure Tom Selleck does a awesome job for this movie !!! ...And the original with Lee Marvin has this scene in it too ...both are great !!!
Hey Squeaky. Thanks for the clip. Definitely scenes from a Charles M. Russell painting! Tom Selleck is my #2 favorite cowboy actor, with Sam Elliot being #1. Conagher is my personal favorite movie for what a cowboy is, with Lonesome Dove a close second. Thanks for your posting. I don't know what some of these commenters are trippin' about! You clarified in your title that you were sharing your opinion. Keyboard warriors.... Happy trails!
Thanks for posting this Monte scene . And WOW ! If I may - after reading some of the comments - correct you are - there are some absolute TasBards on the loose out there.
I love Tom Selleck in his cowboy movies. This was a good movie. But, one minute the horse has a bit and flank strap. Next, he has a halter and no flank strap. All of the tack and even the chaps look brand new. No saddle blanket. Hollywood. 😜
The no saddle blanket is how they started them back in the day and even today with broncy horses or even in saddle bronc or ranch bronc, the starting with a halter is right cus they started them with a bosal or halter i use both depends if they let me mess with their head, and a buck strap is used from time to time with horses even in rodeo they use them, some guys still do for the first fight so if the horse flips out and goes over you ain't in the hot seat
I read the book 50 years back. One of my all time favorites. I like the actors from both movies, neither movie does the book justice but what’s new. :)
Sure did. I love riding an honest bucker. Edit. I should say that I USED TO love riding an honest bucker, too old for that now. My brain still says I can, but my bones know better!
This is 2021 and that is still a very good clip from the Monte Walsh movie love Tom Selleck Quigley Down Under I think was my favorite well idk he has a lot of good movies the Sackett movies that he made we're good also thank you for sharing this great movie clip and just ignore all those people out there with their ignorant loudmouth opinions
I've watched both,lee Marvin is 100% better is this that Tom is.i do love Tom in western but lee Marvin was better suited to play this ruff and tuff guy and not tom!!!!!
You’ve got a lot of thumbs up here, so I’m thinking you done good on this one. It’s not the technically correct stuff that matters as much as the idea of what this scene means, so don’t be discouraged by the keyboard warriors. Personally, I’m just happy my horse and I have a great relationship of mutual trust. So I don’t have to do this hard stuff at my age anymore. Great scene with one of the best western movie stars of the modern era. Wish he’d do more.
Man do I love me a good western. I've seen this movie a handful of times, and it is a favorite. Has some real cowboy action (like this scene) and some touching moments too. My personal favorite western of all time is "Open Range". best gunfight scene ever.
As remakes go, this one fairly well followed the original with Lee Marin and Jack Palance. I think both are good westerns but the ending to The Wild Bunch, directed by Sam Peckinpaw is hard to top.
The ending to "The Professionals" was even better! The line delivered by the late Lee Marvin is one of my all-time favorites. When called "You Bastard" by the wealthy villain, he replies "In my case, an accident of bi8th. But you, sir...you are a self-made man!" Same era, I like Peckinpah, but prefer ""The Professional" by an eyelash.
@Tim Mentzer I'm now of the opinion: if you want something done right you do it yourself. I get arab yearlings, untouched (uncorrupted). Apply some Clinton Anderson methods, and in a few years you can bring em in your house... well not quite. Lol
I bucked on a lot of horses in my day. Most tried scraping me off using a fence, tree, or shrubbery, nearly had my head taken off by low hanging tree limbs (some were successful), but I never had one try jumping through a window. I think I’d have bailed off.
I liked how they put a bay roan in the movie as a nod to Monte’s wedding gift to Chet in the book. Kinda wished they filmed that part, it’d been a hoot.
@michael boultinghouse Isn't it strange how stranger will tell you how you feel about things. I never said it was the saddest, "Brian's Song" or "Old Yeller" come to mind, and as you mentioned, there are others but nostalgia is not the same as sadness and this movie is sad. Suggest you watch "Ballad of Cable Hough".
@michael boultinghouse My my my what an erudite comment. I did say sadness about a single scene and the way the movie made me feel. I'm sorry that all you seem to be able to feel is a longing for a dirty, brutal period in our history. The overall plot for both versions is indeed nostalgic but it is not a happy movie. I suppose that you think that "Ballad of Cable Hogue" is only nostalgia.
@michael boultinghouse This was about a simple comment on a movie until you decided that, because I don't completely agree with your point of view, you attacked my character. Voted for the orange slug did you? Who the fuck are you to tell me I don't deserve to live here? My DD-214 carries a citation for a CIB with a ranger company, I might not survive the future but your sorry ass won't have anything to say about it.
I respect your opinion even if I don't share it. My favorite Lee Marvin on a horse scene is from Cat Ballou, imho funniest western ever. When he was awarded the Best Actor Oscar for his roles (2) in the movie, he said that half the credit belonged to the horse. Ride 'em, Kid Shelleen!
I love the Tom Selleck version the best but you should check out the version from 70 with Lee Marvin. The bucking scene in that one is crazy! Best scene ever!
If a horse is TRULY wild green stock then they are like dogs that want to serve, be loved and cared for, and will be easy to be broke to a saddle and trained to help their master who shows them respect and caring.
My Grandpa learned to break a horse when he was a little kid. The summer when he was 12, back in the 1910s, he would spend a month at a time with only his horse, his dog and a .22 rifle, and watch some guy's sheep. The owner of the flock would give him what he thought would last him a month but, since my Grandpa would share the food with his dog, he'd have to shoot a prairie chicken or two before the guy would come back with more supplies. I remember him telling me that even if his horse was a mile away he'd come when he whistled. As a young adult in a white-out blizzard he knew enough to get down real low on the horse and let the horse sense his way home, which he did before they both froze to death. LOL Last story: for a year, maybe more, he lived with a Dakota, Lakota or Nakota (he didn't say which) who was a Justice of the Peace and owned some land somewhere in North Dakota. The guy spoke no English but his squaw did so that's how my Grandpa learned to speak a little Sioux. He cut deadwood and they sold it for firewood to survive. He learned to hunt with a bow from them and even how to do a little cross-country skiing. I do miss him.
I like Selleck, he's a great cowboy. The same scene from the 1970 version, with Lee Marvin, has them destroying half the town. Please watch it if you haven't already. Unfortunately the only version of he 70s movie I can see here is in German.
I like how Tom Selleck breaks the gate with his back when the horse falls down in the coral. And then Tom Selleck breaks the support board on the new building with his head, as the horse rides under it, and the walls fall down. Great stunts, and totally unrealistic.
They had new saddles and ropes back then too ya know.I am a saddle and tree maker I can say that the saddle is a Modified Association which did not exist in this era.
My Grandfather served in ww1 he broke horses in the army. He was a good amateur veterinary specialist too. Learned a lot from the army Drs in his day. Great American.
My great grandfather broke and trained horses for the U.S. Cavalry in Raton, NM. He would never keep a horse that laid down to sleep. He trained a matched pair of buckskins for my great grandmother to pull her fringed surrey.
Hard to pin down a best scene in what may be the best western I've ever seen. I might say this is better than the original. But that's just another opinion.
That was one helluva a ride!. Who do think is the Boss in the End. IT sure isn't the Horse!. Great movie, great scene, Tom Selleck great actor. 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸👍👍👍👍
I'm a big fan of westerns, and I really liked Lee Marvin in Monte Walsh. I also like Tom, and this is also a good scene, but not the best scene in any movie ever. Not sure there is such a scene that could possibly live up to that appellation, but there are a lot of candidates. "So you're Jack Wilson.", "They say you're a man of vision.", "Say when". Lots of good scenes.
I love the scene bc I've rode my share of buckers and just the thought of riding one thru the General Mercantile store in those days just really does it for me! Haha
Tommy Lee Jones tearing a Union Captain to shreds with a branding iron in Lonesome Dove comes to mind. Eastwood being Clint in Pale Rider or Unforgiven also. Bob Duvall with arrows in his leg fending off the Native American warriors is another. Bet I could give a hundred more examples. Selleck is good but he learned from the Masters.
I’ve often wondered how they got a horse to buck like that in very tight quarters while knocking things over-in either version of the movie…I can’t imagine it’s a scene or series of scenes that can be rehearsed?
This scene reminds me of the man who heard about a horse of exceptional fire and power. He went to see the horse with the idea of buying him and racing him. As he approached the stable, he could feel the energy of the beast humming through the walls of the structure even before he reached it. The owner of the horse agreed to let the man inspect the animal, and he opened the stall door. In a flash, that horse exploded out like a skyrocket. It ran pellmell, hellbent, across the yard. At the far side of the corral, it didn't slow down even a smidgen, but crashed right through the fence, and kept on going, leaving a scorched path across the field. It churned up the turf of that field like a beast possessed until finally it ran, full speed, smack-dab into a tree. Which knocked it unconscious. The man was astonished. "That's the most incredible horse I've ever seen in my life!" he exclaimed. "But who would ever want to buy a horse like that? That horse is blind!" The owner of the horse calmly leaned against the side of the barn, spat some chewing tobacco, and calmly replied, "Oh, he ain't blind. He just don't give a damn."
For the record, I'm just an old cowboy who sees the world thru a different lens than most. One thing I have learned from putting one of my most favorite movie clips of all time onto RUclips, mainly for my enjoyment, is this.....the world is full of some rude, arrogant, ignorant, and opinionated sonsabitches who think their opinion is THE ONLY opinion that matters.

Worked for a man named Leonard Christianson, salt of the earth, and his wife Wilma cooked a hell of a ranch house lunch every day.

At about midnight last of march in co. temp 15 below, Raymond our latest hire a kid out of New York wanting to get back to nature, came and woke me....a cow was in distress.

Thanks man. Reminds me of a funny story. I was just turned 18 and we were feeding cows, and we knew we had an about year month old calf with scours. Well I spotted him and went to grab him by top of the back leg and throw him, I missed and all I got was tail. Off we went him dragging me through the mud and cow shit, with Ronny Hayes and old Leonard running behind yelling "hang on Geno". Well they finally caught up and we gave him some azimiacin. From then on I was considered a "hand"!!
My favorite quote is at the end, "You have no idea, how little I care". I'm retired and use it offend.

I'm not saying Monty Walsh (both versions) are Must See movies....no That is what I'm saying.
First thing I thought: too clean. He should be totally dusty.
I wonder where he finds a dry cleaner out on the range?
That's Hollywood, out of touch with reality.
"I rode down the bay. You had to sit him high."
I always break down a bit at that part.
Monte Walsh is a Great Book.
Well written.
Fantastic character, loyal, boyishly reckless, tough as nails, 100% Cowboy through and through, dead set in his ways.
The guy that can see the job through or die trying.
Lee Marvin played Monte Walsh back in the 70's and was as close to who and what Monte Walsh was as originally written.

Love the story and both versions
This is a good movie, I think his gun fight at the end of Quigley Down Under is also a one of the best gunfight scenes in a cowboy movie.
Said I never had much use for one. Never said I didn't know how to use it.
Hombre - one of the best westerns. The final gunfight is THE best gunfight in a western - ruclips.net/video/YJTvMmulHsM/видео.html
I do like Quigley and I particularly like the introduction where he's proving his skills.
Thank God Baldwin wasn't on the scene.

Makes my back hurt every time I watch this scene. Great movie!
Great scene for sure Tom Selleck does a awesome job for this movie !!! ...And the original with Lee Marvin has this scene in it too ...both are great !!!
This movie embodies "the cowboy way" better than 99% of the other westerns I've seen.
My thoughts for what they are worth, best line from Monte Walsh?
Rudy? You can't have no idea, how little i care!
I use that line every week lol
Of course his chaps are clean! He’s in his “go to town” clothes. Even his vest is buttoned.
Never saw this. Saw the original with Lee Marvin and liked it a lot.

Well, I've never watched this version, out of a stubborn loyalty to the Lee Marvin version. But I have to agree, that was a pretty good scene.
You need to watch this version if you never have. Both are great movies, Lee Marvin is LEGEND....but Selleck does a great job as well!
I've watched both,lee Marvin is 100% better is this that Tom is.i do love Tom in western but lee Marvin was better suited to play this ruff and tuff guy and not tom!!!!!

I want to watch this whole movie. Its looks to be a good one .thanks for sharing 👍 😊
Man do I love me a good western. I've seen this movie a handful of times, and it is a favorite. Has some real cowboy action (like this scene) and some touching moments too.
My personal favorite western of all time is "Open Range". best gunfight scene ever.
Hey Squeaky, I'm with you! Great scene from a fine movie. I have it in my collection. Got a big old grin on from watching your post. Cheers.
As remakes go, this one fairly well followed the original with Lee Marin and Jack Palance. I think both are good westerns but the ending to The Wild Bunch, directed by Sam Peckinpaw is hard to top.
The ending to "The Professionals" was even better! The line delivered by the late Lee Marvin is one of my all-time favorites. When called "You Bastard" by the wealthy villain, he replies "In my case, an accident of bi8th. But you, sir...you are a self-made man!"
Same era, I like Peckinpah, but prefer ""The Professional" by an eyelash.
Starts with a flanker strap on. Creates bucking for sure. Ends with strap off quiet/different horse. The magic of film.
I wish Tom Selleck had never stopped doing
Cowboy movies!
And now he's helping Banks steal old people's homes ) :
Thank you for this!
Today we do things different. I get them so they don't buck when I get on for the first time. I make sure the saddle fits and the horse isn't afraid.
Yeah. The old way, is the old way for a reason. Got 2 broke myself. No way I'd ever try that s%$@. I enjoy all my body parts working.
@@jacobcastro1885 age made me do it different, not the "way". I dont bounce like I used to, damb sure dont move as good the next morning either.
Lana that’s how my sister did it. She was a horse whisperer., if there ever was one.
@Tim Mentzer I'm now of the opinion: if you want something done right you do it yourself. I get arab yearlings, untouched (uncorrupted). Apply some Clinton Anderson methods, and in a few years you can bring em in your house... well not quite. Lol
We need more cowboy movies.
This country is so fucked up because we ain't got anymore cowboys to look up to and ride with and learn from
I bucked on a lot of horses in my day. Most tried scraping me off using a fence, tree, or shrubbery, nearly had my head taken off by low hanging tree limbs (some were successful), but I never had one try jumping through a window. I think I’d have bailed off.
No sir, never quit.
Had one that every time he would go for the gate, open or closed ,didn't matter
I liked how they put a bay roan in the movie as a nod to Monte’s wedding gift to Chet in the book. Kinda wished they filmed that part, it’d been a hoot.
It would be if that was Lee Marvin and that horse was a grey.
it was in the earlier version. (1970) Still one of the saddest movies ever made.
@michael boultinghouse Isn't it strange how stranger will tell you how you feel about things. I never said it was the saddest, "Brian's Song" or "Old Yeller" come to mind, and as you mentioned, there are others but nostalgia is not the same as sadness and this movie is sad. Suggest you watch "Ballad of Cable Hough".
@michael boultinghouse My my my what an erudite comment. I did say sadness about a single scene and the way the movie made me feel. I'm sorry that all you seem to be able to feel is a longing for a dirty, brutal period in our history. The overall plot for both versions is indeed nostalgic but it is not a happy movie. I suppose that you think that "Ballad of Cable Hogue" is only nostalgia.
@michael boultinghouse This was about a simple comment on a movie until you decided that, because I don't completely agree with your point of view, you attacked my character. Voted for the orange slug did you? Who the fuck are you to tell me I don't deserve to live here? My DD-214 carries a citation for a CIB with a ranger company, I might not survive the future but your sorry ass won't have anything to say about it.
Loved this scene, good movie
Thumbs up
Funny how that bucking strap just miraculously disappeared lol
kidstuff4455 you wasn't supposed to see that.
This entire movie is an American cult classic in my book, from beginning to end.
Hail to every cowboy, specifically the “good” ones.
I respect your opinion even if I don't share it. My favorite Lee Marvin on a horse scene is from Cat Ballou, imho funniest western ever. When he was awarded the Best Actor Oscar for his roles (2) in the movie, he said that half the credit belonged to the horse. Ride 'em, Kid Shelleen!
My favorite too when the horse was leaning on the wall with his front legs crossed like he was drunk
Monte Walsh was a great movie!
I love the Tom Selleck version the best but you should check out the version from 70 with Lee Marvin. The bucking scene in that one is crazy! Best scene ever!
If a horse is TRULY wild green stock then they are like dogs that want to serve, be loved and cared for, and will be easy to be broke to a saddle and trained to help their master who shows them respect and caring.
My Grandpa learned to break a horse when he was a little kid. The summer when he was 12, back in the 1910s, he would spend a month at a time with only his horse, his dog and a .22 rifle, and watch some guy's sheep. The owner of the flock would give him what he thought would last him a month but, since my Grandpa would share the food with his dog, he'd have to shoot a prairie chicken or two before the guy would come back with more supplies. I remember him telling me that even if his horse was a mile away he'd come when he whistled. As a young adult in a white-out blizzard he knew enough to get down real low on the horse and let the horse sense his way home, which he did before they both froze to death. LOL Last story: for a year, maybe more, he lived with a Dakota, Lakota or Nakota (he didn't say which) who was a Justice of the Peace and owned some land somewhere in North Dakota. The guy spoke no English but his squaw did so that's how my Grandpa learned to speak a little Sioux. He cut deadwood and they sold it for firewood to survive. He learned to hunt with a bow from them and even how to do a little cross-country skiing. I do miss him.
That's AWESOME! Feel free to tell all the stories you want like that, they are enjoyed and appreciated!
very nice story...you were lucky to have such a man in your life....
Horses will be the death of me. I’m not afraid to get hurt I’m afraid of not being able to go to work which means they don’t eat.
That is how to deal with life no matter how rough it gets Hang On stay the course
I love that movie
Need to see the whole movie, please.
Quigley is a truly great movie.
Hahahaha, agree!
I think it's one of the greatest cowboy movies ever made
I have found MY PEOPLE!
I like Selleck, he's a great cowboy. The same scene from the 1970 version, with Lee Marvin, has them destroying half the town. Please watch it if you haven't already. Unfortunately the only version of he 70s movie I can see here is in German.
great movie and cast
I thought so as well. Just a dang good movie!
I like how Tom Selleck breaks the gate with his back when the horse falls down in the coral. And then Tom Selleck breaks the support board on the new building with his head, as the horse rides under it, and the walls fall down. Great stunts, and totally unrealistic.
I guess you never seen very many movies if this is the best scene ever
I prefer the original Lee Marvin version. It's epic and feels more symbolic of the spirit of the dying old west being let loose one last time.
That's fine, but this version is way better.
@@porflepopnecker4376 Nah, this one feels like a Hallmark movie. The Lee Marvin version is off the chain.
This movie reminds me I need to clean my saddle soon.
Brand new saddle; brand new rope......As much as I love this movie, somethin' about this ain't right.
Pure fantasy
But it looks good if you don't know anything about horses
Everything was new back then. Give it time it will get old.
@@terryderush7066 Same thing happened to me...lol
NattyBumppo48 LOL ! Me too
They had new saddles and ropes back then too ya know.I am a saddle and tree maker I can say that the saddle is a Modified Association which did not exist in this era.
My Grandfather served in ww1 he broke horses in the army. He was a good amateur veterinary specialist too. Learned a lot from the army Drs in his day. Great American.
I SALUTE him, and thank him for his Service to our Great Nation!
My great grandfather broke and trained horses for the U.S. Cavalry in Raton, NM. He would never keep a horse that laid down to sleep. He trained a matched pair of buckskins for my great grandmother to pull her fringed surrey.
That was AWESOME! Ride em Cowboy yeeha!🤠🤠
Times in life like that make you realize you had one .
That cowboy owes a couple of merchants a few years wages for the damages.
Man....! What a movie
This is the best comment on RUclips - ever.
Which one?
Hard to pin down a best scene in what may be the best western I've ever seen. I might say this is better than the original. But that's just another opinion.
I have found my People. Thanks Daniel Blair, glad you enjoyed it as much as I did!
Lee Marvin, Jack Palance. So it is said, so it is done ✅
LOVE IT!
That was one helluva a ride!. Who do think is the Boss in the End. IT sure isn't the Horse!. Great movie, great scene, Tom Selleck great actor. 🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇸👍👍👍👍
I know who would be the boss if i had been setting on him. 😎
Well, you suckered me in with the Best scene ever remark.
Dan Dickerson I agree got me to after I watched it I was how in the hell was that the best scene ever
This is my 2nd favorite Monte Walsh movie. I own them both.
I'm a big fan of westerns, and I really liked Lee Marvin in Monte Walsh. I also like Tom, and this is also a good scene, but not the best scene in any movie ever. Not sure there is such a scene that could possibly live up to that appellation, but there are a lot of candidates. "So you're Jack Wilson.", "They say you're a man of vision.", "Say when". Lots of good scenes.
I love the scene bc I've rode my share of buckers and just the thought of riding one thru the General Mercantile store in those days just really does it for me! Haha
See the Lee Marvin movie. Puts this one to shame. I’m amazed that they would have the temerity to remake ]the best movie ever.
Yes Lee Marvin was great in the 1970 version as was Jack Palance and Jeanne Moreau.
No one sets a horse like Monty Walsh..
I liked the Lee Marvin/Jack Palance one the best, Marvin grabbing a smoke outta Palance's shirt pocket, stuff like that.
Classic
No man in Hollywood can buckaroo more than Tom Sellack
Tommy Lee Jones tearing a Union Captain to shreds with a branding iron in Lonesome Dove comes to mind. Eastwood being Clint in Pale Rider or Unforgiven also.
Bob Duvall with arrows in his leg fending off the Native American warriors is another. Bet I could give a hundred more examples. Selleck is good but he learned from the Masters.
Sam elliot
Lol hes last in line.
And you Know That HOW ??
As an old cowboy yourself, you surely understand hearing loss. I would be much obliged if you would turn the sound up! Thanks.
The original Monty was the best staring Lee Marvin…..a true feel of the old west, thus version is just a Hollywood film…..I’d disagree with writing
This film is rubbish, unfortunately!
YOU'D disagree with writing? Why disagree with something you can't do?
Anything Lee Marvin did Is always going to be the best.
I’ve often wondered how they got a horse to buck like that in very tight quarters while knocking things over-in either version of the movie…I can’t imagine it’s a scene or series of scenes that can be rehearsed?
Done that many times. But never through the round pin , and then in a store. I love that red roam he was riding
yes sir. got a titanium eye socket from maggies head driving my eye through it for not having a tie down.
Yeah right maybe on a red roam, but not on a red roan
This scene reminds me of the man who heard about a horse of exceptional fire and power. He went to see the horse with the idea of buying him and racing him.
As he approached the stable, he could feel the energy of the beast humming through the walls of the structure even before he reached it.
The owner of the horse agreed to let the man inspect the animal, and he opened the stall door. In a flash, that horse exploded out like a skyrocket. It ran pellmell, hellbent, across the yard. At the far side of the corral, it didn't slow down even a smidgen, but crashed right through the fence, and kept on going, leaving a scorched path across the field. It churned up the turf of that field like a beast possessed until finally it ran, full speed, smack-dab into a tree. Which knocked it unconscious.
The man was astonished. "That's the most incredible horse I've ever seen in my life!" he exclaimed. "But who would ever want to buy a horse like that? That horse is blind!"
The owner of the horse calmly leaned against the side of the barn, spat some chewing tobacco, and calmly replied, "Oh, he ain't blind. He just don't give a damn."
