| This First Draw set is an unbelieveably priced collection of the pilots or premier episodes of popular westerns of the past. Once I saw that two episodes of Have Gun Will Travel was included I was sold. Richard Boone playing Paladin was the epitome of cool decked out in his all black outfit and pencil thin moustache. One episode included a young Charles Bronson playing a bad guy. A youthful, pre-spaghetti western Clint Eastwood playing in Rawhide also was something special. I was ... Read More: |

| Joel McCrea could play parts like he did in The Oklahoman in his sleep, but one of the things that made him infinitely likable in this kind of role was that he has a soft-spoken, easy going charm that made audiences warm up to him. He was never too hard or boisterous, but solid, kind-hearted and dependable. The Oklahoman is an example of standard McCrea fare, not outstanding, but certainly not the worst of the genre.
In this film, McCrea plays a doctor moving out west with his wife and ... Read More: |

| Yes, this has faults, many glaring. But it was created for the Texas Sesquicentennial celebration and was aired during the time of year of the battle (if I remember correctly). It was made to be entertaining and appeal to the young people (Alex Baldwin; the young lovers-the girl was played by a former Miss Texas, I think; the marvelous Raul Julia, who practically stole the show), who have to study Texas history twice before they graduate there. As a fifth-generation native Texan (currently exiled in ... Read More: |

| I purchased this edition of the movie specifically because it included an audio commentary about the movie. This movie is one of John Ford's and Henry Fonda's best. Unfortunately I found the audio commentary to be inconsistent. It was at its' best when addressing movie history but lacking when both addressing the history of the times and when exploring the commentators' own views of history.
I will not address the movie itself because many of the commentators have already done so. I agree with those who ... Read More: |

| I bought this video new. The story line is excellent. The acting is excellent. The scene in the courtroom is clever and excellent. The depiction of American history is excellent. The costumes are stylized and overwrought, as was typical during the earlier days of Hollywood. The film is an excellent teaching device for kids. This film was one of the eternal favorites of our parents' generation and our grandparents' generation. But there is a slight problem. There are irritating crackling noises throughout. Why is this? ... Read More: |

| Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: From the Secret Files of Harry Pennypacker
Cheyenne Warrior: The Original Screenplay with Author Commentary Shadow Watcher Nobody Drowns in Mineral Lake Wesley Ruggles is probably best known for directing CIMARRON, the 1931 western that won that year's Best Picture Oscar. This 1940 release has much in common with the earlier movie. Both films are epic in their scope and deal with the building of an American empire. Both pictures are somewhat episodic, emphasize characterization ... Read More: |

| WE WANT OUR MUMMY is a funny short. The scene where the Stooges drive to Egypt in a cab is hilarious. The chase through the tomb is also very funny. RESTLESS KNIGHTS is a pretty boring short. Five minutes is taken up from unimportant wrestling scenes. None of this is very funny. YES WE HAVE NO BONANZA, a decent short. Some of this is funny, but other scenes are not funny enough. The ending was pretty funny though. Decent tape. The quality comes out too dark. |

| This film is a strange one for me as I remember I actually hated it the first time I watched it years back but when I started looking seriously at old films and especially Westerns I began to appreciate "Cat Ballou" a lot more and now after seeing this a few times, I have to say that this is an excellent, hilarious spoof on Westerns and the jokes age very well even to today. As a big fan of all kinds of music myself, I really appreciated the role that Nat King Cole in one of his last performances ever before his death by lung cancer together with Stubby Kaye in the ...

| Richard Boone carries this rather uneven
Western, with superb support from a stellar cast, although Whitman's role is disappointingly small - THE COMANCHEROS is a better choice for Whitman fans. Boone's is a rare blend of tough-guy savagery and rough-edged humanity, and contemporary Hollywood is starved for the authentic manliness that actors like Boone once brought to the screen. Factor in his distinctively droll humor, and you have that indefinable Star Power so elusive today. Granted, the film - as ... Read More: |

| The Sea Of Grass has a great cast headed by Tracy & Hepburn in their only western together. Unfortunately it's more of a drama than a western and may seem a bit slow to western fans. Also their romance is strained throughout which may seem odd to Tracy/Hepburn fans, but won't disappoint in the long-run. The plot chiefly concerns how her one-time indiscretion strains the marriage and disrupts the family, particularly the effects on their son, fathered outside the marriage by Melvyn Douglas. The best thing about the film is the terrific supporting cast, which includes Edgar Buchanan ... Read More: |
