*Guess the Movie Title*

Still no correct answers. That's a very, very well known actor on the left.

Magnificent Seven?

Who Shot Liberty Valence?

Eric · Mon 29/07/2013 12:34:29

Tom Doniphon (John Wayne) did! Still no correct guesses! You guys are getting colder.

Ben X · Mon 29/07/2013 19:08:38

Oh, alright: Rio Bravo?

Ilyich · Mon 29/07/2013 19:18:03

I think that back of the head belongs to Cary Grant and his amazing helmet hair, but apart from that I have no ideas.

Eric · Tue 30/07/2013 03:17:12

If only Ilyich and bbx could join forces! I'm on the road currently, but will post a more revealing shot tomorrow if no one gets it.

Johnny Bravo Always Rings Twice?

~~Bringing Up Baby?~~

I forgot it was a cowboy film.

Hmmm, a Howard Hawks Cary Grant cowboy film. SOMEONE must know this! I don't know westerns.

Is it a cowboy film? I never said it was!

I forgot I wouldn't have a copy of this film with which to make new screenshots. Luckily, the internet is here. This is probably the most famous scene in the movie in question:

Only Angels Have Wings?

...A movie which is not about cowboys, but about airplane pilots in South America!

Never heard of it! So, Ponch's go?

PS - those are goddamn cowboys, Hawks is an idiot.

Eric · Wed 31/07/2013 19:09:18

You should seek it out, sir. It's an amazing movie, and sets the formula for the remainder of Hawks' career. And, perhaps, in a sense, these guys are cowboys, and this is a bit of a western. But not really.

Ponch · Wed 31/07/2013 20:21:02

Only Angels Have Wings was the inspiration for one of my favorite TV shows, Tales of the Gold Monkey. For some reason I didn't recognize it until you posted that last shot. And Howard Hawks loved cowboys so much, he stuck them in almost every movie he did. Much like John Carpenter, a big fan of Hawks, tends to do.

Anyhoo, here's a cap from a movie I watched just last weekend.

I almost cited Carpenter when talking about westerns that weren't westerns! Assault on Precinct 13 is pretty much Rio Bravo. Also, I too am a big fan of Tales of the Gold Monkey, and the show that later paid homage to it, Tale Spin!
