That's the scene just before Paul Newman (Judge Roy Bean) blows a hole in his chest.

'Nope.'"
Or words to that effect.
Featuring Jacqueline Bisset, with a cameo by Anne Bancroft as Jenny Lind.
Roddy McDowell as the oily villain.

Don't remember Anne Bancroft. Bissett had a bit part at the end as Bean's daughter. Victoria Principal was the female lead. Cameo by Ava Gardner as Lilly Langtry. "For Texas and Miss Lilly!" Newman had some great closing scenes: Bean, Cool Hand Luke, and especially Butch Cassidy.

You got me with Ava Gardner. I don't remember Victoria Principal. I saw it once on TV, however long ago that was.

I called in a few places passing themselves off as antique shops here today. There's a few of them here, most sell a combination of overpriced old cr@p, and contemporary Goth tat. I spotted a few knives in one of them, all overpriced, including this one, but I found it quite interesting. Covers look like Rosewood. Tang stamp reads 'Forged Steel' over 'Foreign Make', something I'd expect to see on a Solingen-made knife, made for export in the 20's and early 1930's. 'Make' rather than 'Made' is an old Sheffield thing though, might be a story there. Sorry for the terrible pic, they're buying the cheap light-bulbs here! 🙄

It came out very clear. Another fine lamb that was not a safe queen.👍🏻

Very sweet find Jack! That's a big lamb too!
 
My 1st give away...forgive any bumps in the road.
On Tuesday, August 8th I will be giving these lambs away. First name out of hat gets 2 knives. 2-4 names get 1 each. All will be notified in order of draw. I do not want to tie up the thread, so on that day, simply say "I'm in" if interested.
Some will see them as beaters to save their good one, others who are new, to embellish their flock.
SEE YOU TUESDAY. 5:00 am EST- 5pm EST. when I pull names.20230803_093913.jpg
Mitch & Leon you are eligible.

Back to normal programming now.

On Tuesday, August 8th I will be giving 3 of these lambs away. First name out of hat gets 2, second name gets 1. I do not want to tie up the thread, so on that day, simply say "I'm in" if interested.
