Seducing James Arness' Matt Dillon while playing a tart on a GUNSMOKE episode, actress Ruta Lee was abducted, wrapped in a blanket and knocked out cold by the Marshall. Did she need a stuntwoman? Too late! Ruta came to looking into the pale blue eyes of Arness. The always entertaining actress and philanthropist, Ruta Lee shares that adventure and more in this revealing interview with Rob Word for A WORD ON WESTERNS. Ruta's list of credits is staggering! Her film debut was in the hit western musical, SEVEN BRIDES FOR SEVEN BROTHERS. Find out what that was like and how her on-screen credit, while incorrect, worked in her favor. Lots of laughs and memories with the effervescent actress. Recorded July 16, 2016. This longer episode combines two previous 4 minute episodes with 10 minutes of unaired footage.
