Q: Will the Aurness brothers ever make a
movie together?
A: In the June 28, 1998 issue of Parade Magazine,
there is a Peter Graves interview by James Brady.
And how's his brother, Gunsmoke star James Arness?
"Happily retired and living near us in L.A."
said Graves. "He was badly wounded in Anzio [Italy in World War
II] and has fits with his knees. Can't climb on and off horses anymore.
I sent him a contemporary script I though we might do together, but
he said 'I only feel comfortable in the 19th century.'"
Note: Peter Aurness chose the name Peter Graves from
his mother's maiden name.
