I have never been and am still not a big T.V. watcher. I don't have cable or Netflix, Hulu, or any other streaming services. I have watched exactly 3 series on T.V. in my life. They are Miami Vice, Friday Night Lights, and The Wire. I actually found The Wire on DVD at Walmart while Christmas shopping a few years ago. It was one of the greatest shows ever. Of course, I haven't seen everything else on T.V. so I could be wrong.

One of my favorite performances by Taylor is in a movie called 21 Bridges with the late Chadwick Boseman. It's a small part, but Taylor's character is brutal. I absolutely loved Friday Night Lights. I have the book and the movie and TV series on DVD. Great stuff..

Dafoe is a fine actor, but I don't see him as Doc. To me, Doc Holliday is the juicy role in the various movies about Earp. Victor Mature, Jason Robards, Dennis Quaid, and Kirk Douglas all did solid work as Doc. Of course, no one tops Val Kilmer.

Two westerns that are rarely mentioned on these lists are Ulzana's Raid with Burt Lancaster and The Culpepper Cattle Co. These are solid westerns with strong messages about morality and ability. Of course, they are rather brutal.

Denzel has been robbed a couple of times. "Malcolm X" and "The Hurricane" come to mind. Same with Al Pacino for the movies mentioned in this article. You could add "Panic in Needle Park". Heck, Val Kilmer didn't even get nominated for "Tombstone". Another egregious ommission was David Oyelowo for playing MLK in "Selma". He had Kings' cadence and mannerisms down. That was the year of the "Oscar's So White" protest, I do believe. The protesters were right. That was a stunning performance. So the bottom line is everyone gets robbed at some point.
