Undescribable Perfection
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Monte Hale had a brief Post-WWII career as a singing cowboy. In this series entry, the affable crooner plays a Marshal who rides into save the locals from a land-purchase scam that comes to the attention of the local press.The script, acting and budget of this programmer were mediocre at best. Even the musical interludes seem a bit weak here.In my opinion, the best part of this film was the casting of veteran character actor Jason Robards Sr in a key role.These types of films were cranked out by the studios by the hundreds....... this one does not stand out from the rest. For Monte Hale fans only.
