• Hang 'Em High
    Jed Cooper (Clint Eastwood), an ex-lawman turned rancher, is moving a small herd of cattle when a group of nine men on horseback, led by Captain Wilson (Ed Begley Sr.), ride up and accuse him of having stolen the cattle and killed their owner. They refuse to believe his account, stringing him up by the neck and leaving him for dead. Lucky for him, they don't do the job right, and as Cooper dangles there, barely alive, Deputy U.S. Marshal Bliss (Ben Johnson) spots him and cuts him down. After surviving the next few days in Bliss' tumbleweed wagon with the other prisoners, he is cleared of all accusations and released by Judge Fenton (Pat Hingle). Although Cooper witnesses the hanging of the man who really murdered the owner of the cattle and took Cooper's money, he still wants revenge on the nine men who tried to hang him. Fenton insists that he leave the bringing of them to justice to his deputy marshals. Cooper and Fenton, realizing that they need each other, strike an uneasy bargain, Cooper agrees to wear a badge and bring in the men he's looking for to be tried. This task proves easier said than done as Cooper experiences a number of difficulties in capturing all nine members and bringing them to justice. In the course of his quest, Cooper also makes the acquaintance of a young woman Rachel (Inger Stevens), with her own search for justice. The two of them are drawn together, no more so than when Wilson and two of the others try to gun Cooper down in cold blood. The final confrontation between Cooper and Wilson escalates in violence to its savage, irony-laced conclusion.

  • Obiden, seen here lamenting and crying like a baby rattler about what he called the ‘People(s) ‘ treatment. He knows better -- but he knows what he has to say as the figure head of the deep state's coup d' etat. These ‘ones’ he refers to over and over from the border patrol/news footage - are not the “People” - the People are the citizens of the USA, he’s supposed to be working for. We The People, NOT the illegal/criminal humans from other Countries who have just illegally entered OUR Country and invaded it - which is a crime. The agents on horseback don’t need to be held accountable for

  • Pegasus

    Horses are skittish animals; not particularly favorable to lightning-like flashes of light. How do you get one to jump in the dark as you set off your studio lighting?

    An engineering background and some creative energy can come in handy sometimes.
