scientific methods

12
00:00:40,739 --> 00:00:36,159
Ron coffin guaranteed good for a century

13

14
00:00:49,149 --> 00:00:43,850
body in this condition geological

15
00:00:51,540 --> 00:00:49,159
conditions my best first this is a

16
00:00:54,279 --> 00:00:51,550
wonderful invention it's all right

17
00:00:57,189 --> 00:00:54,289
Minister thank you yeah yeah it was on a

18
00:00:59,649 --> 00:00:57,199
back lot set like this 50 years ago that

19
00:01:02,829 --> 00:00:59,659
Wayne and his football teammate first

20
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:02,839
found work so John Williams and I had

21
00:01:08,140 --> 00:01:05,690
put on that swing gang which is the

22
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:08,150
thought of bringing the furniture so

23
00:01:14,490 --> 00:01:10,490
that the set decorating say put it there

24
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:14,500
and put it there right there and I

25
00:01:20,740 --> 00:01:17,930
stayed at that for a while and when Ford

26
00:01:24,340 --> 00:01:20,750
needed somebody to come herd the geese

27
00:01:27,220 --> 00:01:24,350
on he set they sent me over there and

28
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:27,230
from then on I work in the property

29
00:01:32,890 --> 00:01:30,050
Department and with Pappy Ford on his

30
00:01:34,300 --> 00:01:32,900
pictures do you feel more at home when

31
00:01:37,810 --> 00:01:34,310
you're doing a Western than on any other

32
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:37,820
sort of picture no you feel at home you

33
00:01:43,060 --> 00:01:40,450
feel when you have a good personal story

34
00:01:46,210 --> 00:01:43,070
and you feel everything fits together

35
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:46,220
yeah then when you relaxed otherwise you

36
00:01:51,550 --> 00:01:50,090
know it's it's really a torture to work

37
00:01:52,959 --> 00:01:51,560
in a picture that you feel isn't gonna

38
00:01:55,090 --> 00:01:52,969
be good and

39
00:01:58,779 --> 00:01:55,100
and that you're a pawn in somebody's

40
00:02:00,700 --> 00:01:58,789
hand doing this thing but I think this

41
00:02:03,250 --> 00:02:00,710
is gonna be a good

42
00:02:05,110 --> 00:02:03,260
unlike the younger superstars who feel

43
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:05,120
they don't owe their public any more

44
00:02:09,850 --> 00:02:07,370
than their performances Wayne is aware

45
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:09,860
of who ultimately pays his salary and is

46
00:02:16,930 --> 00:02:12,050
unfailingly gracious to guests on the

47
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:16,940
set but you know I know lousy [\h__\h] a

48
00:02:22,630 --> 00:02:21,050
day before yesterday I felt good but it

49
00:02:27,460 --> 00:02:22,640
wasn't just on this picture I've just

50
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:27,470
had a house a year boy I'm telling you I

51
00:02:33,820 --> 00:02:31,490
am great yeah you wake up the matter of

52
00:02:36,430 --> 00:02:33,830
the sun is shining or anything you feel

53
00:02:38,470 --> 00:02:36,440
good yeah in the film

54
00:02:40,630 --> 00:02:38,480
Wayne plays an aging gunfighter who's

55
00:02:42,250 --> 00:02:40,640
dying of cancer he summoned an

56
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:42,260
undertaker to make his own funeral

57
00:02:48,130 --> 00:02:45,170
preparations you're gonna lay me out for

58
00:02:52,150 --> 00:02:48,140
the public to golf at at fifty cents a

59
00:02:54,250 --> 00:02:52,160
head children ten and when the curiosity

60
00:02:56,170 --> 00:02:54,260
Peters out you're gonna stuff me in a

61
00:02:58,030 --> 00:02:56,180
gunnysack and stick me in a hole

62
00:03:00,790 --> 00:02:58,040
someplace and hustle to the bank with

63
00:03:03,940 --> 00:03:00,800
the loot mr. books I assure you know if

64
00:03:07,090 --> 00:03:03,950
you got a pencil and paper the picture

65
00:03:12,650 --> 00:03:07,100
ends with Wayne's death bloody but a

66
00:03:19,170 --> 00:03:15,150
they like the red black holes

67
00:03:23,700 --> 00:03:19,180
I remember him red but the whole idea of

68
00:03:25,070 --> 00:03:23,710
our business is illusion and they're

69
00:03:29,130 --> 00:03:25,080
getting away from that

70
00:03:30,900 --> 00:03:29,140
putting selected squibs and livers and

71
00:03:35,810 --> 00:03:30,910
blowing them up in slow motion and

72
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:35,820
having blood all over everything I mean

73
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:39,130
it's not that there's more violence in

74
00:03:45,510 --> 00:03:42,610
pictures today it's that it's done with

75
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:45,520
such bad taste that people turn their

76
00:03:54,870 --> 00:03:49,570
stomachs not their emotional insides are

77
00:03:58,110 --> 00:03:54,880
affected it turns their stomach I I just

78
00:04:02,100 --> 00:03:58,120
don't want to play anything petty or

79
00:04:06,890 --> 00:04:02,110
small mean I don't mind being rough and

80
00:04:10,740 --> 00:04:06,900
tough cruel but in a big way no little

81
00:04:13,260 --> 00:04:10,750
petty things I like a good personal

82
00:04:14,270 --> 00:04:13,270
story I don't care whether it's armchair

83
00:04:19,410 --> 00:04:14,280
or

84
00:04:20,789 --> 00:04:19,420
off of it they jump off it I don't do it

85
00:04:22,620 --> 00:04:20,799
anyway

86
00:04:25,350 --> 00:04:22,630
indeed his standing has already

87
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:25,360
performed his dying fall although don

88
00:04:29,430 --> 00:04:27,490
siegel made with the director Wayne make

89
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:29,440
sure that the camera captures his own

90
00:04:35,670 --> 00:04:32,610
demise with dignity suited up his nose

91
00:04:36,450 --> 00:04:35,680
