Artist's Description
Duke produced this shot on location in Mexico 1951 film which starred champion skeet shooter Robert Stack (1919-2003) and was directed by ex bullfighter Budd Boetticher (1916-2001) in his first motion picture.
Advisor John Ford heavily edited the film, but the original has been restored.
Boetticher directed many classic Westerns starring Randolph Scott, most written by Burt Kennedy.
The Mexican born Rodolfo Acosta (1920-1974) is in the cast. He appeared in both "Young Billy Young" and & "The Great White Hope," whose sets I documented in both stills and film. He was also in 22 episodes, as Vaquero, of "The High Chaparral" TV series. He had a great, soulful face. Sadly I never got to photograph him.

I am the last person cited in Jim Hughes' definitive biography of Gene, as I wrote about attending his final...
