A fine showdown-scene. Not necessarily what one expects...but all other possible events would have been dull... And this solution is typical again for a story of Louis L'Amour!
Tyrel i’m a big Sacketts fan my son who’s 32 now middle name is Tyrel He wasn’t fond of the name and I explained that he was just like him I was standing up for the week it was very just about his dealings with people
Those of you who have read the Sackett series remember The Sackett Brand. Tell's wife was murdered and he was ambushed . Later on all kind of Sacketts came out of the woodwork to help him. Might be my favorite, besides Sackett and The Daybreakers.
I grew up with my dad reading me the Sackett books every night before bed. The Daybreakers, which this movie is based on, was always my favorite. These books might have been a bit too mature for a six-year-old to grow up hearing...but I don't regret it. I grew up watching Clint Eastwood too. I remember in first and second grade, the teacher told us to bring our favorite books to school and I would bring in Sackett books and talk about gunfights and cattle rustlers and tinker knives. I can only imagine what they thought lol. Logan Sackett and Emily Talon were also a favorite, along with Echo.
Along with Gilbert Roland, John Vernon, Jack Elam, L.Q. Jones, Mercedes McCambridge, Slim Pickens, Pat Buttram....overall , quite a cast: Academy Award winners and some of the best supporting cast you could ever ask for. BTW, the tales say that Glen Ford, along with Sammy Davis , Jr., were the real fastest guns in Hollywood.
Sam Elliot ruined the role of Tell. Made him look like a raving psycho instead of the big normally easy going character. Tom Selleck should have played the part.
How I love the Sacketts. Read all of L'amour's books. Watched this show back in 1980 and many times since. The casting was incredible. Classic western stars like Glenn Ford, Ben Johnson, Buck Taylor, Jack Elam, Gene Evans and more. And the two men who became America's greatest western stars thru the 90's, Tom Selleck and Sam Elliott. It was a can't miss product.
My favorite of that collection of movies was Crossfire Trail. Mark Harmon was an excellent villain in that one. I have to say I preferred the movies tweaking of the ending as well. Probably sacrilege to say, but there you go.
Benjamin Sibanda Barnes & Noble usually has ten or twelve at any one time. If you want older versions and don’t mind used, abebooks.com is a great resource.
Jeff Osterhage as Tyrel Sackett, The Mora Gunfighter. Buck Taylor as Reed Carney. Great performances by both. In the Louis LaMour Sackett books, Tyrel marries the Mexican lady, Drusilla. They move to Mora, NM and he becomes the lawman there and is known as The Mora Gunfighter. Sure wish more of the Sackett stories had been put to film.
My favorite Sackett book was "The Sackett Brand." But probably best it was never produced as a movie. The mental picture of Tell and how he was would likely not have been portrayed quite right, at least to me. I liked Sam Elliot as Tell, but he would not have been my first choice of actor to play Tell.
I grew up on westerns , still watch em all over , usually on weekends. Sad when u get old and family's dying out , but I still got these westerns and family in my heart and in my head ,always. 👍
I like this scene. It hopefully sends the message that fire power is not as important as brain power. "Hell of a thing killing a man. Take away all he has and everything he's ever gonna have." - Unforgiven (Clint Eastwood)
My late father put Louis L'Amour books in his lunch bucket for shifts in the mine at his lunch. I learned to read from them. Logan Sackett was a favorite character of mine as well.
when Tyrell Sackett is quiet and calm as can be, is when you should be most afraid of him. because that is when he is absolutely deadly. damn near unstoppable. because he doesn't like killing. but when forced to it he will win no matter what.
@andaolsen1539 Tyrel was Hell on Wheels with a Six Shooter !!! Our Tyrel Takes his SIx Shooter along When Camping in Bighorns and Casper Mts, as He had 3 Beagles camping too. They all have their Own Camp Chairs an Blankets !!!
Warms the heart! My original AF is a 293 Pacific. It ran a nightly 3-hour Christmas tree duty this past (2023) Christmas season, easily pulling twice the cars it originally came with in 1954. They don’t make toys like that any more! So great to see you dedicated to the hobby!
Buck Taylor who plays Carney has a long history in westerns. He was in Tombstone, Cowboys and Aliens, the Alamo, Gettysburg (not a western), Wild Wild West, Roughriders and scores of others. Good actor.
He is also the son of character actor Dub Taylor who appeared in such films as YOU CAN'T TAKE IT WITH YOU, MR SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON, BONNIE AND CLYDE, THE WILD BUNCH, A MAN CALLED HORSE, THE UNDEFEATED, CONAGHER and numerous TV shows.
Had a friend that I.had not seen in a long time help n me move after Hurricane Matthew flooded my home. Was a real mess in my area and I had taken most of my belongings that were wet from roof leaks or flood water from 16 " of rain that backed up in my home for second time. H. Floyd did same but left roof intact. I noticed someone pick up a new copy of Sackett by L. Lamour , looked at it , then dropped it in trash. I thought how sad it was this person would throw out a book , but, to think of a Louis Lamour as trash. I still shake my head thinking how glad I was to see and retrieve it. Back on shelf with others in its family. Love all his westerns but the Sackett series I keep reading and will as long as I am able. Books are my treasure anyone who trashes them , I ll take.
Always loved this scene. As usual, the book was better than the movie, and the movie is great! I've read every book Louis L'amour wrote, I think. Sackett series was really good. Even the female Sacketts are tough. I loved the Echo character-she was definitely a woman to "Ride the River" with...but that's earlier in the saga.
I was wondering if this scene stayed with the book...when Hollywood has a tendency to give us gore( gunfight with close up). It must have been hard on directors to just go with a gun fight ending with disarming vs actual guns blazing. And I wonder as a viewer, are we really disappointed in the ending, because the build up was there and you wanted to see him kill smart mouth.
What's funny about this is that street scene looked far too familiar to me. It was as if I remember being at that exact location long ago.... then I remembered where that was. In the spring of 1983 my family and I were on a vacation and traveled through South Dakota. On the way through we stopped at a tourist attraction that featured a realistic wild west town complete with stagecoach rides, reenacted gunfights and even a magic show. It was memorable. That place was Buckskin Joe's.... and the scene in the clip beginning was at the time I was there an old fashioned candy store..... My memory is something else because I wanted to see if I actually was right and.... after a bit of an internet search, I discovered Buckskin Joe's was basically the repurposed set from The Sackets....
The Sacketts were good books but my favorite was last of the breed. If you’ve never read it you have a treat coming and there’s ary a horse or cowboy in the book!
@@55Quirll if you’re afraid of not being believed and then being blackballed, perhaps you wait until your career ends and society seems more inclined to listen. Just a thought.
For me Kilkenny was the baddest and the fastest on the draw followed by the tall stranger and William Tell Sackett. Louis L'Amour was my favourite Western writer, read every book .....
Glenn Ford played a masterful role in this movie. The desire to be more and be accepted for higher and better things, but upon losing the election his antisocial personality couldn't be contained. His anger and bitterness could only end one way. They showed that very well.
Reed Carney played by Buck Taylor. Anybody who knows about him knows what a fine gentleman he really is. I liked him in this role because it was completely opposite of his usual roles. He and his father are 2 of my all time favorites.
Man!!! I just watched the Sackets part 1 yesterday, now today they are all deleted. I hope whoever is responsible for this cowardly and heinous act is staked out in the desert by Comanche and has to watch their guts get eaten by buzzards. People the movie is 38 years old, don't you think it's time to let it go, call it a magnanimous gift to the people.
Good show, or not, if it is still under copyright or patent, using it without permission is theft. There is no second option, no justification, or common good answer that allows for the taking of property without due process. Anymore than it would be right to go into your house and take from you. If it was taken down, theft is the most common reason. I loved the books, and liked the movie quite a bit, but not enough to steal the man's legacy. Every kid was taught that he can't always have what he wants, just because he wants it. It has to be bought, made, earned, or gifted to him before it's his to do with as he wills. Anything less, is theft.
prices false assumption. If I witness a crime, I did not perpetuate that crime. That would be as logical as being charged with hit and run, as you sat in traffic watching it happen, or being charged with armed robbery for being a customer in a bank as it got robbed. Presence does not equal guilt.
@@larrysheets2508 Sorry , too late, you broke the law by watching this clip without paying. If you promise to forget what you saw,I'll forget you were here.
@@captinbeyond did you have to share an IQ growing up? Seems you are making do with just a small portion of one now. This is a very simple concept. A witness is not guilt of the crime. The perpetrator is. Class dismissed.
Drinking to get ready to go to a gunfight makes about as much sense and drinking to get ready for a car race. Either way you end up in a casket, so pay your tab.
I read somewhere that Buck Taylor was originally scheduled to play the Tyrel Sackett role but the director changed his mind when he saw Osterhage's screen test.
The Sacketts are always a favorite Western konnagar was a good Western Sam who he played Sam Houston that was a good one the Shadow Riders are always good some of these movie you can watch three or four times a week and never get tired of them
Blooper-- on the porch the close up of Carney's gun shoes the holster string tied around the leg. When Carney unbuckles the gun belt, the string is already loose.
4:00, Ty Sackett says, " now unless you want to duke it out with me here and now, get the f*** outta here." Then when Carney just kinda deflates lol, Ty says "Now git."
This is the first western scene that has some authenticity to it that I've seen in a long time. When Carney pulls his leather tie down slide strip on his holster to free his gun. EXCEPT he would have pulled it down automatically out of habit to insure that his gun would not fall out of his holster. And then made sure his gun was loose and ready.
Except it wasn't authentic. There never were hammer thongs on those old vintage holsters. That would have been a sure way to get killed. Those holsters back then buried the gun securely until you needed to pull it. Hammer thongs were all Hollywood coming from drop loop fast draw steel lined rigs. Certainly not authentic. If you saw a thongs on a genuine vintage holster it was added much later.
Carney is another prime example of talking the talk but not being able to walk to walk. He reminds me of Ike Clanton in Tombstone. Someone who talks all tough and how he's gunna k!ll him some folks and yet the shoes on the other foot he's scared stiff. Ty, while always standing up for himself, never felt the need to prove himself. He never looked for trouble. Meanwhile, any time Carney was even in the frame he's trying to provoke him or wanting to cause trouble under some misguided sense of revenge, "the most worthless of causes" (King Arthur, Camelot). And what came about from this? Carney got figuratively pantsed in front of everyone and was humbled by this "farmboy". Moral of this subplot: pick your battles wisely. (Actually that probably fits the other antagonists of this movie)
