This is a favorite of mine...Duke had a real flair for humor...The staircase sequence is hilarious...And...NOBODY threw a better movie punch than Duke...

I have to wonder if Hawks had some kind of dementia...He hated The Cowboys, Big Jake, and was critical of Duke in this one...WHAT????????

I've heard the story for years that the hatband was indirectly Gary Cooper's as well...Too shiny, it didn't sit photographically with Duke...A good piece of movie history, though...

Smoke has to be it...He did shoot 3 guys in McQ...Drinks, but does not smoke...Previously, in Cahill, he did smoke cigars...

Gomer was a character!! What a niche...So sad these actors we grew up with are passing seemingly so fast now...
