    The way I remember it, the older kidnapped girl was the young guy's fiancee whom he hadn't seen in years, but it has been a while since I watched that one, too.

    Nope. The young girl is essentially his sister, though not related by blood, and John Wayne's niece, I believe. The guy has a fiancee in another settlement that provides some comic relief when he comes to stay with her.

    It's been a while since I last saw it, too, though.

    No, the comic relief wife happens when he thinks he's buying a blanket from some injun traders, but he actually was buying a girl.

    Or maybe that's from another movie.

    Consarn this imperfect memory of mine!

    Yeah, he gets the Indian wife, but he also has a Swedish chick back home whom he writes letters to. She wants him to stay, but he keeps on looking with John Wayne. At the end, he returns to her and fights her new suitor.

    The rifle duel at the end of Winchester '73 between James Stewart and Stephen McNally is another of the greatest movie fights ever.

    Didn't, so far as I know. I don't think Lucas was ever interested in ripping off Anthony Mann the way he was into robbing Kurosawa and Ford.

    I give this thread: out off
    All right now, son, I want you to get a good night's rest. And remember, I could murder you while you sleep.
    Hey son, I bought you a puppy today after work. But then I killed it and ate it! Hahah, I´m just kidding. I would never buy you a puppy.

    We're talking about movies that don't have Jet Li, Keanu Reeves, Bruce Lee, or Jackie Chan in them. Believe it or not, such movies really exist.
