Movie Reviews of Distant Drums
Movie Review: IN THE GLADES WITH COOP & THE SEMINOLES
Summary: 5 Stars
Saw this film in the 50s when I was growing up and just had to have the DVD. Just finished watching it again for the umpteenth time and it seems that it gets better with each watching.
The technicolor is still very good and the acting is equally good. Coop was at least middle aged in this one but he holds up well, and Arthur Hunnicutt does his normal great job. I give the movie a full 5-stars as I do not recall any other movie ever dealing with the 1840s and the Seminole War. Leave it to Roaul Walsh to do something such as this. This is not the typical western, not even set in the west, but in Florida.
If you have never seen this one, might want to watch it. Gary Cooper was always a fine actor and made any movie better just by being in it. Though the movie is a B-movie from Republic and distributed by Warner Bros. it has a certain ambience after all these years and yet remains quite enjoyable.
Semper Fi.
