Viewing Notes
Caught of little of the Howard Hawks western El Dorado (1966) on a cable station the other day and immediately knew this was something I had to see from the beginning. Library delivered the DVD and I dug into this film featuring macho men and über-attractive women. Robert Mitchum (again, unintentional tribute month) is the drunkard sheriff while John Wayne and his sidekick James Caan are hired guns. They capture outlaw boss Ed Asner and face-off with Christopher George and his gang. Both Michele Carey and Charlene Holt are stunning in support roles. See this movie!
