I finally know the name of this film..
I watch and enjoy a "B" films - war films, sci-fi, western. Lots of genres. I was talking to my uncle last week about the first spaghetti westerns (The Man with No Name Trilogy with Clint Eastwood) and I remembered this one other film that was very well done. But for years I didn't see the film anywhere and not knowing who was in it, it was very hard to track down. It had a good plot, decent music and good gunfights. Everything a "B" film needs.
Well, it's playing right now - My Name is Nobody.
That's two films in the last six weeks that I've identified, C'Etait Un Rendezvous was the other.
I wonder if it was a homage that the kid just recited the names of Beauregard's victims and they included "John Carson" and "Valance" - references to other characters in Westerns of the time. Sam Peckinpah gets a mention too. Ah.. now the "Nevada Kid" did..
A total homage film..
