In the past, we've talked about our favorite western themed movies. Some of my favorites are ones like; 'The Wild Bunch', 'Outlaw Josey Wales', 'The Longriders', 'Doc', 'Dead Man', the spaghetti westerns, 3:10 To Yuma (either one) and 'True Grit' or 'Wild Bill' (both with Jeff Bridges).
Last night I watched one again that I hadn't seen for years, 'The Proposition'. It's not a pussyfied Hollywood glamour western like 'Silverado' or 'Tombstone'. It's gritty. Check it out:

My childhood hero was Cheyenne. When we lived in California I found out that Clint Walker lived about 35 miles from us. I had sometimes thought of driving over there to meet him, but, I never did. 6'-6", 240 lbs.

In high school and during my days in the Air Force, and especially so after I started lifting weights and bulked up a bit, I was often told I looked like Clint Walker.
So...there.

Does anyone know the western movie where an older guy (I think Clint Eastwood was the actor) and a young hotshot fought off literally an army of attackers that were riding towards them? The older guy was an excellent sharpshooter and they also used dynamite to kill some of the attackers and their horses. I think they killed most if not all of the attackers from a far distance before they even got near them.
I believe they defended a train on which they drove away afterwards.

"Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm"?
