  1. Hahaha. Don't just love the way fifties TV distorted history? Jesse James turns around and gets shot in the front? Everyone knows that he was shot in the back of the head. Lee Van Cleef played more bad guys than good ones, but he was so sexy whenever he died. Thanks, Gary.

    1. There will never be such sexy cowboys as the old Hollywood ones the way they fall after getting shot so dramatic and so Hot.

    2. Thank you Dino. I'm probably the only one who didn't know that Jesse James was shot in the back :-) But guess that this version was better to act in early days.

    3. These old Hollywood movies are so much better, with the slower pace so more time to enjoy the sexy cowboy getting shot and going down.

    4. Yeah, Gary. His body was exhumed years ago, and a model of his skull was made at the time. It is on display at the Jesse James homestead in St. Joseph, Missouri (a museum). The bullet entered the back of his head and exited the front. Hollywood was shy about depicting head shots in the early days, but that's fine with me as I prefer they get it in the belly, anyway.

    5. Thank you Dino for the background information. In the old movies, there isn't much blood anyway. It's more acting getting shot. One more episode from the first season of these TV-series coming soon. That's all I had from this.

    6. I have about eighteen episodes and I don't think that's all of them, Gary. Yeah, I don't care if there's any blood in them. I like seeing them grab their bellies and fall, but I do like it when they cringe, moan or groan some.

  2. Most enjoyable. Thanks, Gary. The cute cowboy at 1:27 could pump lead into me any day :) The scene beginning at 6:32 where the cowboy is shot in the back at the top of the stairs was very nicely acted. Loved the way he tumbled back down.

    1. Thanks Phil. The scene on the stairs I found great too. Have slowed it down very much, so have as much fun as possible.
