A real treat, mind over guns! A rare thing to see in Westerns. Many thanks and all the best. Paul.68, retired teacher and fan of Westerns in which justice prevails.
I worked at a full service gas station in 1979 in Belair, next to Beverly Hills. Big stars came in often. Lloyd Bridges, was the absolute nicest man. Very fit, extremely personable and chatty, so very down to earth and would talk to you about his latest projects! The real deal. Sam Elliott, he is another good guy!
"Hi, Dennis. Well, 1) how proud you must feel to be Michael Caffey's son and 2) what a great credit on his credits' sheet is 'The Silent Gun.' Also, it airing the very first season of the iconic "ABC Movie of the Week." He handles gun fights, stand-offs / showdowns, poker games, scenic rides, man-woman, cattle drive scenes all capably well. "Those magnificent locations -- most notably, at the very end -- that long, 'love story,' 'happy ending' wagon ride with Lloyd and Susan going through miles of gorgeous southern California scenery -- were surely familiar to him from his "Combat!" episodes -- Thousand Oaks, Newberry Park, Agoura [and over the decades, nearly all developed]. The direct, overhead shadows lead us to discern this was filmed in the summer of 1968. Guessing you'd be out of school, how many days did you visit the set and what did you observe? "If, by any chance, you have your dad's work files how WONDERFUL it would be for you to look for and share vital information. Such as, telling the YouyTube Universe's 'The Silent Gun' page the beginning and concluding dates filmed, days exterior / days interior; the west San Fernando Valley, etc. specific locations. IMO Paramount's western streets were dressed favorably and realistically for "The Silent Gun." {ed. - yeah, I'm quite the western fan!] The full grown trees are a big help. IMO it looked better in this TV movie than it did on "Bonanza" episodes where it 'stands in' for Virginia City. . . He did alright casting the little blonde girl Lloyd nearly blew away when she went looking for her precious penny (which I'm guessing she's so desperate for because she wants to put it in the church offering plate). Did he think Paramount TV was a good employer? . . . Did saloon girl Barbara Rhodes impress you -- at 14 -- as having an incredibly voluptuous figure to accompany her pretty face and nice smile? She certainly looked that way amassing all those credits while a contract player at Universal in the mid - late '60s. . . . Susan Howard was no slouch either, in those tan, ultra-tight corduroy pants. But, personally, I didn't care for that wig. She's pretty and it wasn't flattering to her. "Did you and all your family accompany your dad to the cast and crew screening and / or the wrap party? Who were you especially interested to see, whether actors or crew?" Thanks, Dennis! This will be great to know -- after half a century of 'wondering.'"
Rare to see an actor who can actually ride a horse. Always tell when the horse is trotting. Lloyd was an excellent rider, and one of the best actors of the era.
You're amazing getting all these old ABC Movie of the Week flicks. At this point, they're pretty much all online. The one that I'd like to see most which isn't up is the 1969 comedy Three's a Crowd, starring Larry Hagman. Seems like it would be a typically frothy MOTW comedy, and I actually enjoy those.
An enjoyable movie. Thanks for posting. Lloyd Bridges always enjoyable. Also John Beck. Although Pernell Roberts was good, I would have Robert Middleton as the town baddie. He was always excellent as suave villain.
@@HartmutJagerArt From things I have read thru the years, he was very argumentative with everyone and was never satisfied with the parts he was assigned. To ME…….his acting always appeared stiff, instead of natural. Guess we will never know for sure.
I guess I'm getting old, and technology has outpaced me. The caption came to place commercial here, and I didn't know how. Any show with a horse in it is a good show, and I saw many a fine horse in this film.
That's funny. I feel the same way. I love westerns and I especially have a great love for horses. I enjoy the horses as much as I do the actors and actresses. I often think I would have been one hell of a gunfighter. Although I would have carried as many six shooters as I could carry and I sure as hell wouldn't just leaving on the dead bodies or laying around the prairie. I'd scarfed up as many as I could get my hands on and I sure as hell wouldn't go anywhere without plenty of ammo. Just kills me when there is a big gun battle and the victors just ride away and leave a bunch of Colt pistols and Winchesters just laying around. Who does that. Also, throwing away a perfectly good canteen when it's out of water is so damned ridiculous it pisses me off. What the hell do they think they'll put the water in at the next water hole or stream. Just total nonsense. I've only seen one or two westerns where people behaved like they had some sense.....i.e. scarfed up as much as they could carry. Yelp, think I would of made one hell of a Huckleberry gun toten dude.
Pernell Roberts left Bonanza because it wasn't "sophisticated" enough for his acting talents. Four years later he's featured in this made-for-TV 'oater'. Methinks Roberts thought he'd become a megastar going solo....and fell on his face.
Pernell Roberts fell on his face? What a ludicrous comment. After Bonanza, he did some excellent stage work , incl. 'Cookoo's Nest'. He did film, tv movies, and countless guest appearances. Oh, he also played the title character in TRAPPER JOHN M.D., which ran 7 years. Me thinks you fell on your face with your lack of film knowledge.
Where did I say P. Roberts was a megastar? YOU MADE THAT INANE PERCEPTION. How do you know what he thought? YOU said he fell on his face. I say he did anything but that. An actor who had success on stage, film and t.v. was a successful actor. What are your standards? He left a type-casting role to branch out, as any true actor will.

didn't expect too much of this but it turned out to be a magnificent film.
Thanks Chris !!!
A beautiful story, with changes in concepts and objectives, without a doubt a great film!
That was a good TV film .
Fine story , script , acting and directing.
🆓🇬🇧✝️
I didn't anticipate it to happen, but that was a fantastic movie. Gratitude for the movie. also some talented actors.
Yup! Pernell Roberts plays "Ben Dover" well!
Best commercials I've ever seen!
Very clean movie, comparatively, especially for 1969!
Commercial free . The best ❗😊
Very clean indeed. Too clean for my liking. I prefer lots of headshot violence à la Clint Eastwood style 👺
but yeah good movie good movie😂
Really a very good movie and the best commercials. Thank you very much. It caused me to subscribe and to watch more of your selection.
I agree. That was a great movie. Thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks lots.

That was an outstanding show. My goodness he was a fine actor.
My dad was the Director for this movie. I was 14 at the time.

So many praises for this movie that i just suscribed.

Any Western with Adam Cartwright had to be worth its weight in gold
Nice movie, thank you & God Bless.
That was a brilliant movie I wasn't expecting that to happen. thanks for the movie. and some good actors too.
M.😊
Great movie. Very fine acting.
A FINE,VERY GOOD MOVIE.I LOVE ROMANCE,DUEL,GUNS....SLOVAK WESTERN MOVIE LOVER.TEXAS RUDY.B.B.SLOVAKIA.
Ed Begley playing an uncharacteristic 'Good Guy'
I love the “place commercial here”!
Outstanding dudes!!!
I love real western and this was one of them.
Yes I do loved
Western movies...
Thanks for showing it now on this
Era ..
I wasn't sure at the start.. but it turned out to be an excellent movie.🤠👍👏
same here
Lloyd Bridges was never one of my favorite actors, though I saw him a lot in the SEA HUNT series.
and you want people to know this about you...why?
Loved it thank you much 🙏 😊
Good TV western movie.
A good film.
That is a really good western. Thank you.
An enjoyable movie. Thanks for posting. Lloyd Bridges always enjoyable. Also John Beck. Although Pernell Roberts was good, I would have Robert Middleton as the town baddie. He was always excellent as suave villain.
As highly as Pernell Roberts thought of himself, he just never made it to the best of the best actors.
@@carolcole570 Yes, it's quite odd really, because he had all the attributes to be a top movie star!
@@HartmutJagerArt From things I have read thru the years, he was very argumentative with everyone and was never satisfied with the parts he was assigned. To ME…….his acting always appeared stiff, instead of natural. Guess we will never know for sure.
Thankyou for a good movie 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Отличный фильм! Как всегда, добро побеждает зло! Только не в реальности, к сожалению...
😂
Great, great movie.
Hey this was a great western all the actors was great thanks

I remember that the actor as Sam was as the eldest son in TV Show Bonanza in my childhood .
And what became of him and her?
EXCELLENT MOVIE
Llyodd bridges playing a cowboy ninja at the begining.

IT IS HARD TO LIVE BY A SHEEP IN A JUNGLE PLACE OR WILD BEAST NATION.

Really good movie. Lloyd Bridges was a great actor. I sure miss him and all the other great western actors of the past.
Sure. See him in High Noon?
@minoosethna4615 I have. There's not many Westerns that I haven't seen, including the old B movies.
@minoosethna4615 - He was great too in 'Battlestar Galactica' !
Classic
Bridges!😎 Sea Hunt aftr the Loner! 😊😊😅aint i a Loyd,all Fan😅😅😅
Very strange Western, but turned out to be a great movie. 👍👍. All because of the lost penny and a misfiring six gun.
No commercial here , thanks .
A good family movie. I always liked Lloyd Bridges, back as far as Sea Hunt. Thanks for the movie
Beautiful!

Good western
High Noon ... 😊
is that Kookie from 77 Sunset Strip?
Adam from Bonanza.
NOOOO ! SAY IT AIN'T SO ! 😂😂😂
He was fine with Bonanza as the older wiser brother. Not very good as a bad guy.
I disagree, he was just fine as a bad guy!
💕🤠💕
12:09 might want to reload that gun unless you have a 9 or 12 shooter

@@williamsaganov9594 You have a rather low bar when it comes to judging an actor a "megastar"
