Richard Farnsworth

I was driving thru Roswell, NM and stopped in at a Kubota dealer to ask a few questions and noticed an autographed photo of him on the desk of the dealership owner.

When I asked about it…the owner told me that Farnsworth had purchased a Kubota from him and was in nearby Lincoln, NM at that time, and had given him the portrait.

I congratulated him on the portrait and only then learned that Mr. Farnsworth had discovered he had advanced prostate cancer. His wife had died a few years earlier, So he called his two sons to come visit. They had a few days together and the sons then returned to their homes.

Mr. Farnsworth then shot himself.

He was really appreciated by me first time when he payed Bill Miner in “The Grey Fox”.
He also played John C. Coble in who had hired Steve McQueens character “Tom Horn”.

His early career…he was a real cowboy…and first performed as a stunt man in westerns,…. including stand-in stunts for John Wayne.

I consider him one of the best. God Speed.

The Straight Story, The Two Jakes, The Natural, Anne of Green Gables, Misery, Highway to Hell… many more

Almost any politician in their elected position. Someday, they'll actually do their job.

When that movie came out on VHS ........... I rewound it and watched the entire thing again - aint but two movies I have EVER done that before!

Val was awesome in that

There are other actors and entertainers I like better but IMO Joaquin Phoenix played Johnny Cash better than Cash could have played himself in Walk The Line. Phoenix also sang most if not all songs for the movie.

 

[nbking]

Russell Crowe in Gladiator, Robert Downey Jr. in Iron Man, Keanu Reeves in John Wick.

 

[RCW]

Clint Eastwood in the "Dirty Harry" series.
