Three outlaws follows a bright star. Sound familiar?

“To cheat the project was an insult. To cheat the audience was damnable.”

The film was shot near a radioactive test site.

“A story based on performance and based on his strong screenplay.”

A trio of heavyweights in the same production was a rare occurrence.

The story is rather unbelievable.

The Duke wasn’t above criticising parts of his own job.

One of just many touchstones for the adventure classic.

One of America’s most definitive stars.

“I have to — almost every time.”
