There is something sexy about Tom Tyler
when he is “knocked out” in a movie, ending up in a reclining
position. Sometimes it's from a shock of electricity, as in
“Adventures of Captain Marvel”, or smacked on the head with the
butt of a gun, as in “Tracy Rides”. Not to mention the famous
final scene he had in “Powdersmoke Range” where he ends up dying
in the arms of Harry Carey, sacrificing his life for his new found
friend. And of course, both “Stagecoach” and “The Westerner”
capitalize on Tom's final moments in the movies, when he is shot, and
ends up on the ground with the camera panning his face, his eyes
closed.
One thing is for certain about Tom
Tyler: just like the Greek god he was marketed as since his debut of
“Let's Go Gallagher” in 1925, he may as well have sprung off a
frieze, come to life with his physique and looks. The ancient Greeks
knew a thing or two about handsome men and celebrated it like no
other ancient culture. Time to get down to business! Here are Tom's
best reclining shots:
