Kirk Douglas: Western Filmography Part 1 of 3

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.

Axe practice for The Vikings?
Kirk said: “It’s a bad movie.”
But IMDB gave it 5.7 out of 10.

    1. 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.
