He was a natural. He was cool, convincing and likeable. He was handsome, too. And of course, he was a hell of a horseman. He had the potential to be a star.
However, after he fell apart with John Ford, he was no longer a lead man. He was a staple of Western throughout in the 50s and 60s, but he mostly played side characters, and more often than not, he was little more than a glorified extra. Then, of course, Peter Bogdanovich called him to play Sam the Lion in The Last Picture Show, but that’s another story.
Do you have any idea why he used to play such small parts? He had been a main character in two major films starring John Wayne.
Just seen him as the sheriff in an Alfred Hitchcock episode
