Nothing defines this movie more for me than when one of Valdez's enemies asks him when was he an Indian fighter, and Valdez answers, "Before I knew better."
This movie has always been one of my favorites. I have no idea how many times I have watched it. It was instrumental in my building myself a .50/70 Government on a single shot rifle action. I made two of them, and gave one to my grand son for his birthday several years ago. Loading it with modern powder, and a 554 grain lead bullet, allows me to load the full spectrum .50/56 to .50/140Sharps. I do not recommend shooting the .50/140 load unless you have a desire for extreme pain. I did it ONCE to proof the rifle and action. It hurts. When Tom Selleck made the Quigley Down Under movie I, again, had to have one. I bought a D. Pedersoli Quigley .45/70 Government. Modern powders allow the same loading options, 525 grain cast bullet, .45/70 to .45/120 Sharps. The original rifles were load designated due to the case volume. Either one of my rifles will make the shots the actors shot in their movies. The .45/70 Government was famous for 1,000 yard accuracy. It was actually tested at the Army test center at Sandy Hook around 1873 where it fired a bullet 3,500 yards. That was the year the .45/70 Government cartridge replaced the .50/70 Government round as the issue cartridge for the US Armed forces. Quite a feat for the ballistics technology of the time. That shot was recorded and verified by the US Army ordinance board. Old guns are great to play with.
I'm a Black Powder person and will watch this whole movie just to get to the long-distance shots with his Sharps. Love part where he is setting his own loads. FWIW.
This movie has always been one of my favorite Westerns. I wish someone could post the scene at the end where El Segundo (Barton Heyman) comes to a grudging respect for Valdez, and refuses to do Tanner's bidding in killing him.
Those damn fools underestimated just who the hell they were dealing with..A warrior who still had a lot of fighting left in him..not some weak old fool.
This was a good film. They simply do not make stuff like this now. Apache. Ulzana’s Raid. The Professionals. The Kentuckian. Burt made great movies. From Here to Eternity. Great stuff!
I would add Atlantic City, Go Tell the Spartans, The Rainmaker, Elmer Gantry, The Scalphunters,The Swimmer,Castle Keep, The Gunfight at OK Corral, The Birdman of Alcatraz, The Crimson Pirate, His Majesty O'Keefe,The Sweet Smell of Success,The Train,Brute Force, The Rose Tattoo, Come Back Little Sheba,Lawman, Valdez is Coming, and a little movie titled From Here to Eternity.But outside of these I really can't think of anything worthwhile Lancaster ever did on screen.
This was an epic that should live in everybody´s memory. One of the greatest. Period. Too bad Burt Lancaster is no longer alive to read this comment. I hope he can from way above.
Great movie. Gritty, hard hitting, probably very close to what the old west was like. The guy Valdez grabbed and stuck on the horse looks a lot like a guy who played in "Lawman" with Burt.
Burt Lancaster.Nobody had the screen charisma he had. He moved like a cat across the screen. He was a very talented actor with a wide of roles range . No doubt he was one of the best. This was a more than decent movie.
o FarOeste está entre os Gêneros de filmes que mais Gosto, talvez o segundo ou terceiro em ordem Cronológica. Tanto os filmes Antigos quanto os Novos São no Geral a Maioria MUITO Bons, e alguns ótimos, outros Excelentes. e com Lindas Paisagens da Natureza, Os que mais Gostei dos filmes Antigos ou seja décadas de 30, 40,50,60, e 70 foram: 1°) O Retorno de Valdez, 2°) O Vale da Vingança, e 3°) Gatilho Relâmpago. E entre os " Novos " filmes ou seja décadas de 80, e 90 em Diante. gostei Muito de 1°) Pacto de Justiça, 2°) os Indomáveis, e 3°) Tombstone - A Justiça está Chegando. mas o que poucos sabem sobre filmes de FarOeste ou Velho Oeste como preferem chamar alguns, É que o Oeste Americano no Geral era realmente como retratado nos filmes Como exemplo o ( estilo de vida, comidas e costumes típicos, inclusive todos tinha o direito de andar armados, até o modo de falar dos habitantes do Oeste era singular deles. ) TUDO isso eles tentam retratar nos filmes, inclusive o matar em legítima defesa q era comum naquela época no Oeste Americano. e Muitas vezes eles praticavam Justiça " com as próprias mãos ". Claro que em Muitos filmes de FarOeste os Diretores e Produtores EXAGERAM sim em relação a muitas coisas do estilo de vida do Oeste, Principalmente no quesito mortes por tiros ou Bang Banga como chamam alguns, eles os habitantes do Oeste eram sim Bons de tiro e no manejo da Arma, mas o fato É que Não eram tão PERFEITOS assim no tiro como MUITOS filmes de FarOeste retratam. mas muitos filmes do Gênero são mais realistas nesta questão dos tiros, que sim eram no Geral bons atiradores e rápidos no Gatilho, mas sem aquele exagerado todo de muitos filmes do Gênero. Outra coisa que acontecia muitas vezes nos filmes de FarOeste, e q Muitas Produções de filmes exageram ao retratar, era a " Justiça com as próprias mãos " acontecia sim naquela época CLARO. Embora eles os habitantes do Oeste tinham Justiça legalmente estabelecida em leis, com Xerife, Juiz e etc.. mas as muitas vezes que faziam Justiça com as próprias mãos, NÃO acontecia com este exagero todo que É retratado em MUITOS filmes do Gênero. Mas no Geral Muitos filmes de FarOeste se aproxima muito de como realmente era o estilo de vida naquela época, por isso Gosto Muito dos filmes de FarOeste estão entre os 3 ou 4 Gêneros de filmes que mais Gosto.
I love the quiet,humble strength and dignity Lancaster brings to the character of Bob Valdez.
One of my favorite Western movies because it is so authentic!
Wonderful film. I've watched it many times. Barton Heyman's "El Secundo" was a truly memorable character.
Nothing defines this movie more for me than when one of Valdez's enemies asks him when was he an Indian fighter, and Valdez answers, "Before I knew better."
Best line EVER!
Gotta love that classic Lancaster pose at 0.12. He stops, legs out, his arm extended out and down, fingers out.

"We are going to Nogales!"
Just read the book. First Western I've read in about 30 years. Loved every word. Would like to see the whole movie...
I loved this movie……great story.

One of the Best Movie.
Watching all most everyday.
Gosh! I saw this movie when I was like 10 years old back in 1970! Great western indeed!
priestpega Michael Winner and Burt Lancaster

Great movie. Gritty, hard hitting, probably very close to what the old west was like.

Good movie
Seen its trailer in our b&w tv when I was still a kid
good movie..
You tube need to have this movie available.others can watch full movie
It's funny. My horse never calls out when I'm riding wilderness areas. These horses must be a different breed. lol
If there are other horses nearby, he doesn't notice or mind being separated?
This one hell of a film when man were man and american citizens had the right too defend them selfs and the law was the gun.
ok rob9641 put it up lets have a look...Burt looks the part of a real cowboy in The Lawman one of the best...
At 0:33 the chick looks hot bound, gagged and hobbled. I wonder how long she had to stay tied up during filming.
Is this Blanco Canyon from The Big Country
hi guys...anyone got Burt Lancaster in the lawman.....
was valdez from mexico or pr
not well shot, too many disjointed panning longshots..
100 dollars.
