Description
Former contract writer for Wayne's Batjac Productions, Burt Kennedy, had discovered the rich comedy buried in the screen heavy Jack Elam.
In "Rio Lobo" Elam served as a comic foil to Duke; seen in the background in this publicity photo used to promote the film.
And further in the background is the bridge and cantina constructed especially for "Rio Lobo." Both were destroyed in the devastating 1995 fire at Old Tucson.
Duke is wearing the belt buckle given him as a gift by Howard Hawks when they made "Red River" 24 years earlier.
Hawks retired from directing after "Rio Lobo."
