Bad Day At Black Rock

One of my favorite films...thanks Doc for the reminder about westerns.

Bad Day at Black Rock is a movie you see
it's one of my favorites, it's tough and gritty,
In search of a man this one handed stranger
came to a town and found himself danger.

Looking for Komoko, and Adobe Flats
gets off the train and finds himself that-
there's a secret that buried deep in the ground
and no one in town wants him around.

It's filled with a cast in a story so fine
starring the greats Tracy, Marvin, Borgnine,
It's a bit of a western and a lot of film noir
the lead is my favorite old-time movie star.

So if you have time that you're looking to fill
I suggest Bad Day at Black Rock, it's written to thrill,
so get out the popcorn, your worn cowboy boots
It's a fabulous movie no one can dispute.

I just read this wonderful poem to my husband who is a diehard fan of all things western. We both enjoyed it!

You won't be disappointed it's a great film along with Robert Ryan and Anne Francis...I just couldn't fit them into the rhyme. Thanks Angel.
