The Shootist (DVD, 2001, Widescreen)

Shootout at the Metripole Salloon

I must still be a kid at heart. I still watch these old shows. This one is from 1976 when I was a junior in high school.
This is the "final ride" of the character JB Books. His last shootout was finished off by his friend Gillom Rogers played by Ron Howard (Richie Cunningham).
Gillom tries to save Books by shooting his attackers but its too late. After Books sees that Gillom avenges the shootings against Books, Gillom gets a nod of approval from Books. It's too bad that Books dies but Gillom is the real hero when he comes to the aide of Books.
Really a good show.Read full review

Stellar cast and story

One of the Duke's greatest films and he deserved an Oscar for his performance. A man dying of cancer, portraying a gunfighter dying of cancer. Here's to you Duke! May you "live on' forever.
