The writing isn’t great, but Charlie sure is.
A year or two ago, I saw a bootleg copy of one of the first episodes of Have Gun, Will Travel, one of Richard Boone’s Western series. Charlie played a skinny, little guy who goes around shooting men to death, simply because he doesn’t like them. Paladin (Boone) asks him, if you don’t like ‘em, why don’t you beat ‘em up?”
Charlie: Because I’m no good at that, and I don’t wanna lose.
That’s all paraphrased.
“The Outlaw” (1957) did have great writing. The bad guy had good attributes, and each man takes turns saving the other’s life.
Paladin: “Well, unfortunately, you can’t be allowed to go around killing everybody you don’t like.
Manfred Holt: “Yeah, it does sound like I got me some bad habits.”
