I saw an old film called Along came Jones with Gary Cooper and Loretta Young in the starring roles, it was a light hearthed cowboy film in 1945.
In the Film there was an actor that looked a lot like Charleton Heston playing the role of a cow hand not a speaking part who had a short bit in this film.
Is there any way to verify the names of the extras in this film and verify if it was Charlton Heston .
Heston isn’t listed even as an uncredited actor in Along Came Jones, so it was probably someone who looked like him.
What did this character do? Are you thinking of the cowhand in the saloon, played by Henry Wills?
hi,loved this guy’s work,thought ‘agony & ecstasy’ bigger than ben hur??# were these classics ever put on dvd or sim’r……thos
