I remember Hombre. Good solid western with an outstanding cast, some twists and turns and a twist ending. I recall the business with the belly gun between Newman and the great Fredric March. Good job by you here! Congratulations! Gerard

Didn't see the movie, Syd, but I have always loved that quote! Did it come from Roosevelt? Not sure, but it's one I use often. You did a great job with your lanterne. Congratulations on your well deserved win in the contest! Love, Carolyn
