Watching only Westerns for weeks has rendered me very cynical of anybody and everybody.
“Shane”, “Johnny Guitar”, “Never Grow Old” are the best ones from before my only-Westerns period. Now I appreciate Henry Fonda, Lee Marvin and Burt Lancaster a lot more. The true hero of my experience is Randolph Scott, who in his fifties was a convincing forty year old. He couldn’t half make a B movie.
