Tim Holt 1949 |
Our cable menu includes Encore Western's. Friday early AM, I found
Stagecoach Kid, starring Tim Holt and his side kick Richard Martin. The film was made in 1949. I was 5 years old. As far back as my memory goes, I have loved all things cowboy...
My Dad's favorite cowboy was Tim Holt, in the 40's he was addicted to movies and especially Westerns. I tripped down memory lane today and watched this movie.
When TV came along, Daddy loved Bonanza and Raw Hide and Gun-smoke, so did I...
Stagecoach had adobe homes, horses, fighting cowboys and inside the house I could admire old lamps and rockers and tables...
I watched this movie and tried to see it through my dad's eyes as he would have seen the wonders of the big screen in the 1940's...
and I do so wish he could have had Encore Westerns on his TV and he could have watched them 24/7....
and the scandalous of it all back then was this girl in boys clothes, painted ladies, bad men and good men. Good versus Evil and Good always Won.
this is the girl that was dressed as a boy after she transformed from teen boy to girl just in time to snag Tim as her husband....I LOVED IT....
