A simpler time..
« on: Jun 24, 2019, 02:42:07 AM »
Just watched and enjoyed 'Nevada Smith', a mid- 60's Western starring a young Steve McQueen. There were no minority actors crow-barred into parts, as per modern studio 'guidelines', none of the cowboys slept together and at the end, everybody was the same sex they were when the film began...Sorry if it causes upset and dismay but it made a nice change.

I think I saw it back in the day - certainly sounds enjoyable.

Thank you for the days, the days you gave me.
