His injury was terrible, but it was a gift for those of us who enjoyed his films. If he hadn't been wounded, I think he wold have been career military and his fans would have missed a lot.

I recommend both those movies; especially "Night Passage". Jimmy Stewart and Audie Murphy play off each other really well. And Dan Duryea is in the fulm too, as a real loose canon. Good fun all the way around, especially the scene where Jimmy Stewart plays the accordion and really gets to his wild kid brother.<br /> Kit Pratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17173204190307056869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6351311718404868409.post-90129593723079605232015-05-14T21:06:17.767-05:002015-05-14T21:06:17.767-05:00Hi, LIette!
