Movie Reviews of Cowboy

Movie Review: Cowboy
Summary: 4 Stars

Based on a true story written by Frank Harris, the Jack Lemmon role, about his experiences on a cattle drive. Glenn Ford is good & Jack Lemmon is well-cast as the tenderfoot. I know, Jack Lemmon wasn't known for westerns but don't knock him until you watch him. I've never read the book & I highly suspect that the movie is a very condensed version. Jack Lemmon's character takes an incredible turn of personality about two-thirds of the way through the story. Not a classic but the combo of Glenn Ford & Jack Lemmon is an interesting one.

Movie Review: The heart of the classic western
Summary: 4 Stars

The tender-foot who proves he can learn his lessons all too well. It is a classic western story with that quintessential cowboy legend in Glenn Ford juxtaposed against the tender-foot played well by Jack Lemmon. The contrast and comparisons make for an interesting and moral tale of how two very different men learn from each other the lessons of human dignity and respect. Very well played and very entertaining classic western tale.

Movie Review: LEMMON AND FORD
Summary: 4 Stars

Two scenes of anthology; the rattlesnake thrown in the middle of the cowboys and Glenn Ford against an aggressive bull. I found this movie very depressing because it relates the victory of materialism over idealism.

Movie Review: Ride 'em "Cowboy"!
Summary: 4 Stars

One of the better westerns of the period with the always excellent Glenn Ford and a young and talented Jack Lemmon. Well photographed and tightly edited. I highly recommend this fifties Columbia production.
