OT: Help me remember old cowboy movie

Post by Hungarian »

Okay, I remember a movie when I was a little kid...or maybe a show where the town drunk wakes up and everyone has left the town because indians are going to attack...and he fights them off? Anyone have a name of the movie or show? Thanks in advance!

Seems like that was a Louis Lamour story?

It was a short story by Louis Lamour, I don't recall the name of it. I don't know if it was made into a movie or tv show, but could have been.
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat." -Theodore Roosevelt-

Isnt it amazing how many people post without reading the thread?

Found it at http://www.louislamour.com/audio/collectedfontier1.htm

The Defense of Sentinel, a whiskey-soaked drunk wakes to find that he's only hope for a town surrounded by marauders.

Looks like it was made into a couple of TV shows.
