"Ruth Roman"


          

I can't remember which LL movie she was in where she had main scenes with Ben Johnson; great moviee. Lately though I've seen her in many westerns set around 1950. She was gorgeous! It really was refreshing to see that she'd kept her good looks. When they cast her, they hit gold.
Those movies have been on the western channels, so check them out if you get time.

The Sacketts as Rosie, Cap Rountrees old flame. Cap made a comment she had poisoned a past husband :7 but was a great cook. She would have had another place in Lonely on the Mountain as she turned up there under another name.

Isn't making a smoking section in a restaurant like making a peeing section in a swimming pool?

I'd have t go back and check if her character is in the book.

She's featured in the movie when Tell and Cap are headed to Tell's gold claim. She owns a place in the high country that serves drinks and grub.

Like Les said, she and Cap had a history.

I just vaguely remember the movie.
I know many here are older than I am, but you know, it's relative. The next time I see it for sale, it's MINE.☺

Checked into Sackett and the role of Rosie is a male cook so she doesn't appear in Sackett in the role in the movie. In Lonely on the Mountain Tell does let Cap know that a woman joining them is known to them both but using a different name. I put 2 + 2 together and put Rosie from the movie into that role.

The other lady in 'Lonely on the mountain' was Mary McCann, who Cap described as no youngster, and she may be carrying a little weight, but she could still ride most anything that wore hair.
One thing about that book, was, I was disappointed that they didn't reveal who killed Shorty and got a little revenge, but that is what is so great about Louis, he left a little for the imagination...
