Movie Reviews of Buffalo Bill
Movie Review: "When the Legend becomes Fact - Print the Legend"
Summary: 4 Stars
20th Century Fox presents "BUFFALO BILL" (1944) (90 min/Color) (Fully Restored/Dolby Digitally Remastered) -- Well played by Joel McCrea, Colonel William F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody is first seen as an army Indian scout, pursuing peaceful coexistence despite the animosity of Chief Yellow Hand (Anthony Quinn) and the obstruction of anti-Indian politicians --- He also takes time out to court the lovely Louisa (Maureen O'Hara), the well-bred Eastern girl who will become his wife despite her initial distaste for the West --- Under the tutelage of impresario Ned Buntline (Thomas Mitchell), Cody follows up his military career with a more spectacular one as a larger-than-life showman, touring throughout the world with his spectacular Wild West show.
As director John Ford put it: "When the legend becomes fact, print the legend."
