Muchas Gracia por el Photo, Señor -
Especially appropriate, as 'Seven Samurai' was notably lacking in railroad action
(which is a prerequisite of most really good westerns, IMHO).
- Roosso (muy) Loco
p.s. IIRC, the Hollyweird career of NdeM #(1)67 faded considerably after the 'Scarlet Harlot' -
D&RGW / C&TS #483 - stole Leading Lady roles from her in 1968 and 1970 ...
pps. IMHO, the date should be changed to May 7th! Then the soundtrack from Magnificent
Seven - starring FCI #(1)67 - could become the theme music for the holiday!!
