Fun Stuff

Quotes:
Anse Harper: I wish I could take that grin off his face.
Yellowstone Kelly: He's proud... counting coup on us.
Anse Harper: Coup?
Yellowstone Kelly: That stick he clubbed us with! A coup stick. Horseback Indians figure anybody can stand safe off and kill a man, but if you can get close enough to touch him and then ride away alive, that's something to tell your squaw about.

A fine cast, good story and action make this a great western, 13 August 2000

Author: bux from Tecumseh ok

The location scenery help make this a fine picture, with TV's Cheyenne, Clint Walker as the title character. Edd (Kooky) Byrnes shows signs that he could have been a good actor in a supporting role. Only real problem is the typical Warner Brothers Indian Maiden...complete with full make-up and blue eyes. The script moves along at a fast pace, the action scenes are great, and Walker appears HUGE on the screen today. This is a fun western to watch.
