I love that oldie. <br>I knew Katy Jurado. She died about 3 years ago. She lived in Mexico City. About 5 years ago she visited my boss in Chicago. Don't know how she knew a Cuban eye doctor but she stopped by from time to time. She was in a wheelchair the last time I saw her because she was beaten up and robbed in a street in Mex City. Poor thing. She did compliment my outfit which made me feel like a star. She was a real nice lady.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-75735341153738954912007-08-14T07:06:00.000+01:002007-08-14T07:06:00.000+01:00can't get into westerns either. guess there ain't ...can't get into westerns either. guess there ain't no cowboy in me<br>:o(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-64434893685918486162007-08-14T15:32:00.000+01:002007-08-14T15:32:00.000+01:00Patrick: Just watched a Bette Davis flick last nig...Patrick: Just watched a Bette Davis flick last night! (See entry above.)<br><br>Merle: There's still some good stuff out there, but it's mostly indie or foreign-made. Studios are too obsessed with profits and thus shoot for the lowest common denominator.<br><br>Catwoman: I'm so impressed that you knew Katy Jurado! She was great in this film; it's not hard for me to imagine that she was a nice person.<br><br>Pod: They're very hit or miss. Some of them are terrible. ("The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" is one of the most boring movies I ever tried to watch.) I find it interesting that, as a genre, they've died out so completely. I guess we just don't identify with the whole Western-Expansion mentality anymore.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
