Man Called Horse, A (1970) -- (Movie Clip) Open, I'd Be Shooting Grouse Something like a disclaimer, or a tease, relating to what became a notorious scene, then an evocative credit sequence and the introduction of Richard Harris in the title role, a wayward English nobleman, Dub Taylor a sidekick, in director Elliott Silverstein’s A Man Called Horse, 1970.

Man Called Horse, A (1970) -- (Movie Clip) You Horrible Old Hag!
