Movie Reviews of Classic Western Round-Up, Vol. 2 (The Texans / California / The Cimarron Kid / The Man from the Alamo)
Movie Review: pretty doggone good
Summary: 4 Stars
If you like the classical western (pre spaghetti)format you're going to like these collections. It's a little tempting to rate these as trite but remember, they really did a lot to create the genre, from the goofy Technicolor quasi musicals like "California" (replete with angels screaming "gold!" and zombie-like miners deserting the wagon train for the gold fields) to the honest and humble Glenn Ford in "The Man From the Alamo" which also showcases High O'Brien. The man can ride!
"Man" also has, to my mind, the most incredible horse stunt ever towards the end of the film - you'll just have to watch to see it. For horse stunt aficionados it's better than the downhill ride in "The Man From Snowy River"
Real extras who can actually ride. Real pulldowns. Great acting. Plots both silly and serious, all in all, a "great ride".
Summary of Classic Western Round-Up, Vol. 2 (The Texans / California / The Cimarron Kid / The Man from the Alamo)
This collection presents four classic Westerns. In THE TEXANS (1938) an ex-Confederate soldier helps a beautiful spirited woman drive 10000 head of cattle to Abilene Texas. In CALIFORNIA (1946) three wagon-trainers make their fortunes during the Gold Rush. In THE CIMARRON KID (1952) a young outlaw joins the infamous Dalton Gang. And in THE MAN FROM THE ALAMO (1953) a group of men draw straws to see which of them will leave the fort to save their families from bandits marauding the countryside.Runtime: 352 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: WESTERN/MISC.
