      I figured somebody would guess it was Randolph. He fits most of the criteria and my vague hints for sure.
      It’s likely Scott will make my list shortly … not who I had in mind right now.
      Thank You anyhow.

    Garry think James Stewart who is the top leading man of all actors. If it’s ONLY Westerns, I am betting on John Wayne. I’m pretty sure he has at least five, though Stewart has a lot too. Your hints aren’t all that helpful because the national registry doesn’t break down movies by categories like “westerns” and “musicals.” BUT since John Ford then Howard Hawks are the two top directorial winners, the odds favor Wayne and Stewart, both of whom appeared in many pictures by both of those directors. Garry’s going to take another look at it later.

    In the first picture, the only one he could recognize was Hart in the middle. I didn’t recognize anyone, but I’m really bad at facial recognition on screen and personally.

      And those are smart guesses for sure.
