    Movie western cowboy and oriental pursue
    Hello. I'm trying to locate the name of an American movie I saw on TV when I was young - during the 70's, maybe early 80's. All I remember is that it was a western about a cowboy hooking up with an oriental warrior of some sort (Shogun or Samurai?). They are sitting near a campfire when a mosquito starts buzzing around and the warrior uses his sword to kill the insect in mid-air. Anyone else remember this movie?

    I think that's Soleil rouge (Red Sun)

    Hi Quinn F. I just found a clip of Soleil rouge on YouTube and you nailed it! I didn't remember Charles Bronson was in the movie. Strangely enough, I had looked up some information about the old movie "The White Buffalo" earlier this morning (excellent movie by the by) and perhaps this triggered something in the old subconscious that got me to thinking about Red Sun without realizing it. Thanks so much - now off to try to find a copy of the movie I can watch online.

    P.S. I'll be posting another question shortly about another old movie I'm trying to track down, so stay tuned.. .
