Howdy All,
My wife and watched a western a few years ago that had DeForrest Kelly (Dr. McCoy from Star Trek) in it, and we can't for the life of us remember the title of the film. What made it so memorable was a line he said when he was trying to care for a wounded cowboy. He said something to the effect of "What can I do, I'm a cowboy not a doctor!" After all the times we had watched him on Star Trek saying "I'm a doctor, not a (fill in the blank)" we couldn't stop laughing.

Hi
My first reaction was Gunfight at the OK Corral as I didn't think he made many westerns. IMDB thinks differently as you can see:-
Waco (1966) .... Bill Rile
Apache Uprising (1966) .... Toby Jack Saunders
Town Tamer (1965) .... Guy Tavenner
Black Spurs (1965) .... Sheriff #1
Gunfight at Comanche Creek (1963) .... Amos Troop... aka Gun Fight at Comanche Creek (USA: poster title)
Warlock (1959) .... Curley Burne
... aka Shoot Out at Warlock (USA: reissue title)
The Law and Jake Wade (1958) (as De Forest Kelley) .... Wexley
Gunfight at the O.K. Corral (1957) .... Morgan Earp
Tension at Table Rock (1956) .... Jim BreckHope you remember.
Regards

Actually, DeForest Kelly did make a lot of Westerns. Kelly also made many-a-TV-western appearances too. One not on the list from Arthur that I know he was in though he spoke no lines was: Major Dundee. Kelly was one of the Confederate Soldiers that was in the background just before Pvt Hadley (Warren Oates) was to be executed for desertion and stealing food. I/ve seen him in several other Westerns as a minor character including Glenn Ford westerns. Sorry I cannot place what movie he was in when he said the above mentioned line.
