The other night, I caught a few minutes of the original 3:10 to Yuma. I have seen it before, and it is better than its remake from a few years ago. Of course, originals are usually better than remakes. The first one has better actors in several roles, but I definitely think that Richard Jaeckel is better than Ben Foster in the role of Charlie Prince.
Jaeckel shows up in a lot of movies, and I figured this would be a good time to look for words of wisdom in those movies. As in all Movie Wisdom posts, I must have seen all of the movies, but the words can be spoken by any actor in the movie.

You gotta learn right and you gotta learn fast.
Don’t get blind, staggerin’ stinkin’ falling down drunk.
From 3:10 to Yuma
It seems terrible that something bad can happen and all anybody can do is stand by and watch.
Funny, some men you see every day for ten years and you never notice; some men you see once and they’re with you for the rest of your life.
Squeezin’ that watch ain’t gonna stop time.
Borrowing isn’t begging.
From 4 for Texas
A secret whispered in a coffee house is as confidential as a headline in a newspaper.

No matter where people go, sooner or later there’s the law.

Comes an age in a man’s life when he don’t wanna spend time figuring what comes next.

Red light stop, green light go, yellow light go very fast.

Good call.
First saw Richard in ‘3:10 to Yuma’ and ‘The Gunfighter’. B&W movies.
An excellent support actor who had a good career. One of his last memorable roles was in ‘Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid’.
He was also good in The Dirty Dozen.
