Posts from The Ringo Kid in thread „Burt Lancaster“

Quote from WaynamoJim

Another really good Lancaster western is Vengeance Valley with Robert Walker Sr. playing the villain in that one. It's definitely a sleeper. With that, my favorite Lancaster westerns are:

Gunfight At The OK Corral
The Professionals
Vera Cruz
Valdez Is Coming
Lawman
Vengeance Valley

Two of my favorite Lancaster non-westerns but with alot of action
The Crimson Pirate
The Flame And The Arrow

Hi Waynamo.J, great choices, all of them. Also, thanks for mentioning: The Crimson Pirate and The Flame and the Arrow, I have not seen both of those movies for far longer than I can remember.

Also, Vera Cruz is one of my all-time most favorite Lancaster films. Being teamed up with Gary Cooper doesn't hurt ;-)) I always wished that they both could have teamed up in at least one more Western.

Best regards--Carl.

thats's right Ringo the devil's disciple with sir laurence olivier. lancaster & douglas were a great team together. let's not forget seven days in may and gunfight at OK corral.

Hi Bill, it's a shame that D.D. is not ont on DvD. I last saw it about 15 years ago when it was played on AMC I think? I thought it was a great twist to the story to have Kirk going from Rebel to Preacher and to have Burt going from Preacher to Rebel. Also have to agree with you about Gunfight at the OK Corral-simply a great movie.

Quote from BILL OF PA

also not a great film but a fun movie to watch is tough guys, with kirk douglas a comedy about two old train robbers who after 30 years in prison tty to go straight without success.

Hi Bill, I too liked: Tough Guys-having seen it at the theater when it came out. I love the look on Kirk's face near the end after he fired his Uzi at the police cars. This has always been one of my favorite movie with the two of them together. I think the other one was: Devils Disciple-or something like that?
