My Top Ten Favorite Western Actors:
Kirk made 18 Westerns so I’m going to run them in 3 parts.
I reworked all the images.
Most of these early Westerns can be seen in full for free
on a few different sites on the net. Some can be downloaded as well.
The image quality varies from poor to excellent.
Raoul Walsh
Also Starring Walter Brennan.
Kirk was 35.
Axe practice for The Vikings?
Kirk said: “It’s a bad movie.”
But IMDB gave it 5.7 out of 10.

Lancaster and Douglas in their prime.
Easily one of the Top Ten Westerns of all time.
12 to go …
My favorites are always the one in which Kirk and Burt work together. They were a lot of fun to watch.
I pray that you and Garry are OK during this difficult times of Climate Change and other concerns.
Burt and Kirk made 3 movies together, though I’ve seen it said that they didn’t always get along? Yet there was obviously a strong bond there – and Kirk openly expressed the loss of his dear friend on his passing.
