Happy holidays!🎄Thanks for sticking with me guys, I really appreciate it. I'm having so much fun researching the material for these videos, but without y'all and your support, it wouldn't be nearly as great of an experience.

Been a Duke fan since I was born! Was 16 when he died in 79! Have a bunch of his movies on DVD n VHS!

Stagecoach is so fast and entertaining. I regularly watch it.

I thought "Rio Grande" was better than "Fort Apache".

The Quiet Man is timeless...but is hardly a western

You forgot "Three Godfathers." Better than "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon" and much better than "Rio Bravo." Wayne was terrific in "Liberty Valance, " it was Stewart who was past his prime.
