125. The Right Stuff - the scene at Pancho's . . .

Fri Jan 26, 2024, 10:02 PM

Jan 2024

where Chuck Yeager (Sam Shepard) flirts with and then pursues his wife Glynnis (Barbara Hershey) on horseback through the desert.

My huge crush on the lovely Ms. Hershey might have something to do with my fondness for that scene.

Also, I've always wanted a wife with a firey disposition who was willing to play like that.
