Winchester Model 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine<\/a> \u2013 the stuff you can find out on the internet these days is absolutely phenomenal – and the two of them gun the varmints down, Chance also putting another notch on his rifle by shooting an extra baddie at the end of the street.<\/p>\nA few things to mention about this scene. First off, it gives Colorado the chance to redeem himself with Chance after having turned down a request for help from the beleaguered sheriff.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s now part of the group, whether he likes it or not, along with Stumpy and Dude, tasked with fending off Burdette and his men until the Marshal arrives, so we\u2019re now reassured everything is going to work out fine for the good guys – and he can sing too. <\/span><\/p>\nSecondly, the scene takes part the morning after a night of passion between Chance and Feathers so what with him being somewhat tired and worn out to say the least, I\u2019m guessing Chance would have appreciated all the help he could get.<\/p>\n
Thirdly, the hat worn by the villain on the right is so ridiculously outlandish \u2013 he looks as though he\u2019s just mugged Tom Mix and stolen it from him – <\/span>the man deserves to die purely for crimes against cowboy fashion.<\/p>\nAlso, I love the fact that the hotel Colorado emerges from is called The Alamo.<\/p>\n
Not only does it bring to mind the fact that Chance and his group are under siege in the jailhouse throughout most of the film, but Wayne gets free publicity for his next directorial effort. What\u2019s not to like?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
