Sophisticates are always going on about how superior foreign films are to American movies, but you never hear them going on about spaghetti westerns or Japanese monster movies! Next time some slimy Eurotrash starts going on about how tasteless American cinema is, just whisper two words:
COMANCHE BLANCO
I guarantee he'll turn pale and stop in his tracks.

Me too! and I love his Saddlebred as well. It's not the best of his movies by any means, but it's a good story that has a decent, moral plot line & a good, solid ending.
I can't imagine anyone thinking their cinema being better than the films made in America, but in any event, I could careless who made the movie, any movie, or where it was made, who's in it or the director, etc.. The only aspect that I care about is whether of not I liked it &/or the musical score. What the hell else could possibly matter? It makes me think of all the ads, station ID, & all the other garbage. THey must be totally crackers if any of think we watch because it's on CBS, who cares. I watch a show or film cuz I like it not because it's on CBS or whomever. When it comes to our favorite film stars, we like them because they repeatedly delight us with this acting skill & I do not know anyone who watches a film or TV show just because a certain person's in it unless it's a good show or film. As for Mr. Shatner, I like 99% of what he's done. A Twist in the Tale was sensational; he's such a good story teller. If you haven't seen the series you must. Most of the shows are great, a few are so-so & as usual a couple stink, but in everyone one (he's the narrator) he's terrific! BTW I did not care for T.J. Hooker nor rescue 911 (the latter was too tense for me.) But most everything else, excepting when he was the evil one, I liked. He was even good in the Sherlock Holmes film with Stewart Granger & was absolutely fantastic in Little Women!
