Yakima Canutt, the most famous stuntman in Hollywood and a trailblazer in the second unit director area, was born on a ranch in the Snake River Hills, 16 miles from Colfax, on Penewawa Creek. Canutt rode and roped as a child. He entered his first rodeo at 16 and proved to be a natural bucking-bronc rider and bulldogger. He continued his record-breaking career as a saddle-bronc rider after serving a brief time in the US navy during the first World War. He also adopted the nickname "Yakima," which, despite being Native American, actually refers to the town he was born in at the time and was not given because he was Native American, as has been incorrectly stated elsewhere. His ancestry is exclusively European. He met Tom Mix at a Los Angeles rodeo, and Tom helped him land a job as a cowboy extra. Canutt's prowess as a stunt combatant and rider earned him a role as the star of several western silent films. But a bout of the illness had injured his vocal cords, and his scratchy voice was not appropriate for the heroics of sound-film cowboys when sound became popular. Despite continuing to perform roles as a heavie, he concentrated on stunt work and became renowned as Hollywood's top stuntman in the 1930s. Together with John Wayne, he invented a new method for filming screen fights that looked more realistic, and Canutt spent years developing or perfecting the majority of the stunts seen in westerns and action movies.After suffering serious injuries while performing stunts for Boom Town and In Old Oklahoma, Canutt stopped doing stunts professionally and focused on directing second units—crews that filmed action scenes, stunts, and other scenes that didn't necessarily need the main cast members. He directed some of the most exciting and iconic action scenes in movie history, which culminated in Ben-Hur's renowned chariot race. In 1966, he received a special Oscar for his contributions to cinema. Joe Canutt and Tap Canutt, two of his children, followed him into the stunt industry. Yakima Canutt, the most renowned and esteemed stuntman in history, passed away in 1986.Listen now to learn more about this famous Evergreen State born stuntman!A special thank you goes out to Al Hirsch for providing the music for the podcast, check him out on YouTube.Find merchandise for the podcast now available at:     https://washington-history-by-jon-c.creator-spring.comIf you enjoy the podcast and would like to contribute, please visit: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/EvergreenpodIf you have any questions, episode ideas you'd like to see explored, or just have a general comment, please reach out at Historyoftheevergreenstatepod@gmail.comTo keep up on news for the podcast and other related announcements, please like and follow:https://www.facebook.com/HistoryoftheevergreenstatepodcastFind the podcast over on Instagram as well: @HISTORY_EVERGREENSTATEPODCASTYou can also find the podcast over on YouTube:http://www.youtube.com/@historyoftheevergreenstatepodThank you for listening to another episode of the History of the Evergreen State Podcast!

"We're the victims of a foul disease called social prejudice, my child."REBROADCASTFord Delivers A Classic WesternWhen John Ford decided to helm Stagecoach in 1939, he hadn't done a western since his days in the silent film era. Yet it was this film, along with his relationship with John Wayne, that would lead to him making arguably some of the greatest westerns in cinema. Yet with this film, it was really more of a chance to make a western that could be a bit more serious, not just another b-level shoot-em-up, while still making a movie that was pretty light and entertaining. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue our series on films from 1939 with Ford's Stagecoach. Here's a Hint at Our ConversationWe talk about John Ford as a director and what he was trying to do with this film, pointing out some Ford-isms along with debating his strength as a filmmaker. We chat about Dudley Nichols' script adapted from Ernest Haycox's short story, enjoying what he did with the nine principal characters in the film, even if there were some pacing issues throughout. We discuss the cinematography of Bert Glennon and the way he and Ford shot the action sequences. We chat about stuntman and stunt coordinator Yakima Canutt, marveling at the amazing stunts he performs in the film while also feeling pretty horrified at the methods he devised to get the horses to fall on camera. And we touch on the cast, touching on what each of them bring to their roles. It's a fun film, even if not one of our favorites, but still gives us a great movie to talk about.

And we look at what problems we have with the story and why it makes us feel uncomfortable, even if the story itself can be enjoyed when taken out of historical context. Focusing more on the film itself, we look at the actors – Vivien Leigh, Clark Gable, Olivia de Havilland, Leslie Howard, Thomas Mitchell, Hattie McDaniel and more – how they got their parts and how well they work for us. We look at lots of bit players and talk about where they've since popped up. We talk about the context of 1939 and how the studio system worked. We talk about the three directors who contributed to this film – George Cukor, Victor Fleming and Sam Wood – as well as the producing kingpin who really is the one responsible for getting this film made the way he wanted: David O. Selznick. We chat about other key crew who helped bring this film to life, including Max Steiner, Yakima Canutt, William Cameron Menzies and Walter Plunkett. And we marvel at how much money this film has taken in over its lifetime and deliberate over whether it should still be able to make money or if it should be locked away now due to its painful portrayal of the period.

Almost Live!: Still Alive

The town of Yakima is not only the self-proclaimed "Palm Springs of Washington State" - but it's also the hometown of some remarkable and famous people. A partial list includes the late Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas. The great short story writer and poet, Raymond Carver, grew up there. One of the most-admired writers for kids spent time in Yakima - and was the author of Pat Cashman's favorite books about Henry Huggins and his dog, Ribsy. She was Beverly Cleary… who died in 2021 at the age of 105. Perhaps one of the most underrated pop vocalists of all time is from Yakima: Gary Puckett. He named his band after the nearby town of Union Gap. Remember the big Indian guy from the movie "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"? His name was Will Sampson… he grew up in Yakima - and, frankly, could have cashed in on his gum endorsement in that ‘Cuckoo' movie. ("Juicy Fruit") Believe it or not, the great standup comic, Sam Kinison - grew up in Yakima. The legendary movie stuntman and actor, Yakima Canutt, took his first name from the Yakima River Valley where he grew up. The skiiers, Phil and Steve Mahre are from Yakima. So was Pete Rademacher… the one-time heavyweight boxer who got knocked out by Floyd Patterson at Sick's Stadium in Seattle in 1957. And perhaps… most notable of all… Floyd Paxton was from Yakima. Who is Floyd Paxton? Only the inventor of the Kwik Lok Bread Clip. But there's another Yakima native whose name you might not know… but should. She was, after all, the very first executive producer of Almost Live! She's Dana Dwinell. After high school in Yakima, she graduated from the University of Washington… from which other Almost Live! alum like John Keister, Nancy Guppy, Bob Nelson and Joel McHale also graduated. It is considered a super easy college. But after Dana graduated, she soon got her first TV gig at KING in Seattle as a part-time production assistant - eventually working her way up to be the associate producer of KING's longtime morning show, Seattle Today. She got stuck in that gig until a new station program director came along with some new ideas. One idea was a local music video show called REV - an acronym that stood for ‘Rock Entertainment Videos. Dana became the co-producer of that - a show that introduced a new face to TV in a recurring segment called The Rocket Report. That new face? A guy named John Keister. But the new program director had another big idea: Starting up a never-before-tried local comedy show. After a couple of not-so-good pilot shows… it eventually became Almost Live! Dana Dwinell was tapped to be the executive producer. A couple of years later, she moved on. Really moved. To produce a morning show in Philadelphia - staying for three years. Later she went on to San Francisco for another TV opportunity. There were other stops along the way - but she and her husband eventually made the decision to move back… to Yakima. It would be a new career - in advertising. Today, she runs her own very successful company: D2 Communications. D2, see? Because her name starts with two D's? That's a cool idea using the first letter of your first and last name to form a business acronym. Unless your name is Pete Peterson. Find out more about the journey of the remarkable Dana Dwinell - as Pat talks to her from the D2 offices - in the Palm Springs of Washington state - Yakima. Not far from Ellensburg - the Oxnard of Washington state...

Yeehaw! Pod Hard is finally trampling all over the western genre and starts off in the best possible way - by watching one of the all-time greats, John Ford's Stagecoach. Jonas Högberg & Anders Hultqvist are instantly smitten with the iconic stock characters that share a ride through Apache territory in 1880 and applaud Ford for his flawless tension building. Orson Welles saw Stagecoach 40 times before directing Citizen Kane. This film was his film school! John Wayne is the original Arnold Schwarzenegger, Donald Meek plays his own name, Monumental Valley is all that and legendary stunt man and stunt coordinator Yakima Canutt is showing off. Stagecoach is Michael Curtiz-approved, geezer-approved and Pod Hard-approved. "Well, I guess you can't break out of prison and into society in the same week."

En los inicios del mundo del cine, ya encontramos dobles que compartían todo tipo de hazañas con actores como Buster Keaton y Harold Lloyd y así acróbatas, cowboys, conductores o temerarios de todo tipo se convirtieron en una de las profesiones más ingratas del celuloide.

No podemos dejar de mencionar a las stuntwomen, mujeres como Zoe Bell, que han peleado por la igualdad en un sector mayoritariamente masculino. Ni tampoco a esos actores especialmente temerarios como Jackie Chan o Tom Cruise que incluso han llegado a prescindir de dobles.

When John Ford decided to helm “Stagecoach” in 1939, he hadn't done a western since his days in the silent film era. Yet it was this film, along with his relationship with John Wayne, that would lead to him making arguably some of the greatest westerns in cinema. Yet with this film, it was really more of a chance to make a western that could be a bit more serious, not just another b-level shoot-em-up, while still making a movie that was pretty light and entertaining. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we continue our series on films from 1939 with Ford's “Stagecoach.” We talk about John Ford as a director and what he was trying to do with this film, pointing out some Ford-isms along with debating his strength as a filmmaker. We chat about Dudley Nichols' script adapted from Ernest Haycox's short story, enjoying what he did with the nine principal characters in the film, even if there were some pacing issues throughout. We discuss the cinematography of Bert Glennon and the way he and Ford shot the action sequences. We chat about stuntman and stunt coordinator Yakima Canutt, marveling at the amazing stunts he performs in the film while also feeling pretty horrified at the methods he devised to get the horses to fall on camera. And we touch on the cast, touching on what each of them bring to their roles. It's a fun film, even if not one of our favorites, but still gives us a great movie to talk about.

“Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn." Considering the racially-charged climate of the US right now, it’s oddly perfect timing that we’re starting our 1939 series with “Gone With The Wind,” a film as technically brilliant to look at as it is hard to watch because of it’s portrayal of slavery and the ‘lost cause’ Southern view of the Civil War. It certainly gives us a lot to talk about in this episode! Join us — Pete Wright and Andy Nelson — as we dive into Victor Fleming’s “Gone With The Wind.” We talk at length about the position of the film in cinematic history and how that contrasts with what it’s portraying and how we feel about that, noting that perhaps this film is one that should be considered in the same camp as ‘Song of the South.’ And we look at what problems we have with the story and why it makes us feel uncomfortable, even if the story itself can be enjoyed when taken out of historical context. Focusing more on the film itself, we look at the actors — Vivien Leigh, Clark Gable, Olivia de Havilland, Leslie Howard, Thomas Mitchell, Hattie McDaniel and more — how they got their parts and how well they work for us. We look at lots of bit players and talk about where they’ve since popped up. We talk about the context of 1939 and how the studio system worked. We talk about the three directors who contributed to this film — George Cukor, Victor Fleming and Sam Wood — as well as the producing kingpin who really is the one responsible for getting this film made the way he wanted: David O. Selznick. We chat about other key crew who helped bring this film to life, including Max Steiner, Yakima Canutt, William Cameron Menzies and Walter Plunkett. And we marvel at how much money this film has taken in over its lifetime and deliberate over whether it should still be able to make money or if it should be locked away now due to its painful portrayal of the period. It’s a long film but a film well worth discussing because of these factors. Tune in! Film Sundries Screenplay Original theatrical trailer Original poster artwork Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell Flickchart HuffPost Politics Blog: Yes, You’re a Racist — and a Traitor Trailers of the Week Andy’s Trailer: Sicario — “Denis Villeneuve wowed me with ‘Prisoners’ and ‘Incendies.’ This story along the US/Mexico border looks like he’s back with another strong film and I’m quite excited to see it. Plus Emily Blunt kicking butt again." Pete’s Trailer: Dragon Blade — “This is a mystery to me: Jackie Chan with Adrien Brody and John Cusack? Apparently it’s doing well in China, so I’ll probably give it a shot, but it’s tonally confusing to my eye and Brody as the Big Bad? I don’t buy it." Hey! You know what would be awesome?
