True Grit - the remake.

[Ranger Dave]

Tom Selleck played Orin Sackett and Sam Elliott played Tell Sackett

The original is on TCM tonight at 8:00 est....followed by The Shootist.

I'd buy off on the new TG.
Sheree North was great in the Shootist.... not sure they'd be able to pull that one off as a remake.

I still see plenty of the "corn nubbin' " in her....she certainly looks better than Glenn Campbell does now...

Women seem to change a bit more than men. This is Hawaiian singer Liz Damon taken in 1971 for her album cover.



And today, 39 years later.



Still, not too bad really. She looks "more Hawaiian" in the younger photo.

Doesn't sound too bad either. Much better than the crap they produce today.   Bill T.

You know what? That's just fine with me. I have a lot more respect for a woman who says, "I have crow's feet, a big ass and a pot belly, deal with it. I'm fifty. If you wanted to f..k me when I was 25 you missed your chance. Either take your clothes off or leave.". I'll take her every day over one who has a chest full of silicone, a face full of botox and has had so many face lits her ears are stapled toghether. I want a real woman, not some anorexic model or a sixty going on thirty diva. The same is true of movis. The only sequel/remake I've ever really liked is "The Unforgiven". It wasn't a remake of a "Few Dollars More", it was just a natural extension of the guy's story, wrinkles and all. +10 to Clint for doing it right. Me, I wouldn't want to try to be a better John Wayne. A better Glenn Cambell, that I can do, but upstaging the Duke.......

FQ you just mentioned the "Duke's" name in the same post as:

A better Glenn Cambell

movis

anorexic model or a sixty going on thirty diva

a face full of botox and has had so many face lits

I'll take her every day over one who has a chest full of silicone

"I have crow's feet, a big ass and a pot belly, deal with it. I'm fifty. If you wanted to f..k me when I was 25 you missed your chance. Either take your clothes off or leave.".

Ol' tex here will be washing this blatant disregard to "Man Laws Violations" down with three fingers of single malt scotch.

Sorry Tex
I think I pretty much gave you chapter and verse of the the Man Laws. The exception being mentioning Glenn Campel's name in proximity to the Duke's, but that's not my fault, I didn't cast the original. As for the rest of it, a real man wants a real woman. Period, end of discussion.

Real Men, Real WOman, roger. Got it . But opinions, and FEELings need no mention in the same post as the DUKE. These are strictly forbade in 'The Man Laws' dude.

That's all I meant of it.

tex, who still respect the JW and the boyhood dreams of westerns.
