John Wayne starred in the classic western "Chisum" in 1970.
In one scene, rustlers ambush some cowboys and steal their herd.
The scene ends with a fourth-wall-breaking shot.
It recalls the first screen western, "The Great Train Robbery"...
...whose classic ending of a man shooting directly into the camera startled crowds in 1903.
In this way director Andrew V. MacLaglen pays brief homage to the genre's past.
I neither own nor claim any rights to this material. Just having some fun with it. Thanks for watching!
