I plan on making one myself where a former outlaw finds religion, changes his name, and starts a family. But then his family is killed and his home is destroyed and he is forced to use his gun once again. The film will be called, "Alias Jack Slade" and I'm hoping to cast somebody in the lead role. Keep in mind, the movies I plan on making I'm not gonna be making right now. They take time to make so I'm gonna have to wait a couple more years before I can make them. But when I do, I'll let you know when and where they will be made and with whom. As always, wish me luck and I'll catch ya on the flip side.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632055767270986594.post-9437095686362417852016-02-19T11:19:00.428-08:002016-02-19T11:19:00.428-08:00The negative aspects of Slade are easy to find but...The negative aspects of Slade are easy to find but one winter the supplies for Virginia City were left on the banks of the Missouri by a steamboat captain who did not want to contend with the Blackfeet any more. Slade put together a supply train and went clear up to the Missouri, in winter, with marauding Indians to deal with, and brought the supplies back, effectively saving V.C. from at least very hard times if not survival itself.Larry Gibsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09218902148186011536noreply@blogger.com
