He has both eyes. And not to give away too much, its the trick eye that got him into the trouble for which he has a wanted poster.

I really like Dean Martin's character - if memory doesn't fail me, he has a glass eye, right?<br />Thanks for the kind comment!<br />Cheers!<br />LeLêhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02419693749682458647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722895377719228596.post-74393535901604010642017-06-06T20:32:36.838-05:002017-06-06T20:32:36.838-05:00Well, that's why I said "IF you haven'...Well, that's why I said "IF you haven't seen it" ;-)Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722895377719228596.post-560382064453362052017-06-06T17:50:27.476-05:002017-06-06T17:50:27.476-05:00You'd be surprised what I've seen...

In the 70's and early 80's we were inundated with albums from teenage heartthrobs who either really thought they could sing or were gullible enough to believe it when some one else told them they could.<br /><br />Thanks for reading. Westerns can be a trying experience if they are cookie cutter Saturday matinee crap, but this is one of the better ones.Quiggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12434473473185065992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722895377719228596.post-32560864808446160062017-06-06T14:23:43.676-05:002017-06-06T14:23:43.676-05:00I was just making the case that in musicals they s...I was just making the case that in musicals they should try to use real singers rather than have actors try to sing, but you remind me that many singers don't make it.<br /><br />This sounds like quite an interesting film! I used to not watch westerns, but have been discovering that I enjoy them more than I thought I did and will have to give this one a try. Thanks!

Ohhhhhhhhh, you've made me really want to rewatch this. I just got the full, remastered score on CD a few weeks ago, and it is delicious.<br /><br />Dean Martin is one of my favorite singers, and I very much enjoy his acting as well. He was in a very silly western called <i>Texas Across the River</i> with Joey Bishop and Alain Delon that I recommend if you haven't seen it.Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.com
