  2. Chris, I agree with Macheath, the guy in the underwear with the corset is defininetly Lee Marvin in Cat Ballou. There are other union suit scenes in that movie are fun too such as when he is practiciing shooting, pulls his gun out of his britches, and as he manages a shot, those britches fall down showing his red union suit. You should post more photos of Lee in his union suit.
    I wasn't sure who the man helping him on with the corset so I had to watch the movie again and check the credits. He is actor Tom Nardini who was playing Jackson Two Bears. I haven't a clue who the other man and woman are or what movie. I live in Wheatridge, CO and love westerns. Let me know what the other movie is so I can watch it too... Dalton
