The Shootist

I was skeptical about ordering a DVD on line. This was for a gift.
I was surprised at how quickly I received my purchase..within 2 days.
It is top quality. I would purchase this way again.

Summary of The Shootist

Terminally ill john bernard brooks the last of the legendary gunfighters quietly returns to carson city to be treated by his old friend dr hostetler. The troubled man seeks peace in a boarding house run by a widow & her son but its not his fate to die in peace & he become embroiled in one last valiant battle Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 04/11/2006 Starring: John Wayne Lauren Bacall Run time: 98 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Don Siegel
The last film of John Wayne could not have been more fitting, full of details that can't help but make one reflect upon his legacy in the movies and his life as a star. Wayne plays a career gunfighter in the autumn of his life, trying to hang up his pistols after he discovers he's dying of cancer. Boarding in the house of an attractive widow (Lauren Bacall) and her son (Ron Howard), Wayne's character opts for peace in his final days but is dogged by his reputation when a handful of killers seeks him out for a final fight. Howard is fine as a fatherless boy who needs the strong mentor the hero represents, and James Stewart--who costarred with Wayne in the great Man Who Shot Liberty Valance--plays the doctor who gives the big man the bad news. Don Siegel (Invasion of the Body Snatchers) thoughtfully directs a very special and sensitive production. --Tom Keogh
