Kirk Douglas Gets Hit by a Truck | Lonely Are the Brave

Exhausted and wounded after a rhythmic ascent through the Sandia Mountains, Jack Burns (Kirk Douglas) reaches the final barrier to his freedom: a rain-slicked highway during a heavy thunderstorm. In a staggering display of "intellectual insight," Burns attempts to lead his spooked horse, Whiskey, across the blacktop, only to be struck by a truck hauling industrial toilets. As Sheriff Johnson (Walter Matthau) arrives at the "matter of fact" carnage, he offers a final, silent mercy, refusing to identify the broken man on the asphalt. It is a breathtaking cinematic achievement where the old world isn't conquered by the law, but simply run over by the future.

A fiercely independent cowboy finds himself hunted through the mountains by a modern world that no longer has a place for his way of life. This 1962 classic is widely considered Kirk Douglas’ greatest performance.
