Movie Reviews of Lust for Gold
Movie Review: Western Film Noir
Summary: 4 Stars
LUST FOR GOLD (1949) is very interesting western.
Ostensibly the true story of the fabled Lost Dutchman Gold Mine in Arizona's Superstition Mountains, the movie casts Glenn Ford as Jacob "Dutch" Walz, perhaps the most villainous role of his career.
Walz, according to this story, murdered several men, including his partner (Edgar Buchanan) in order to keep the location of his mine secret. However, when he meets Julia Thomas (Ida Lupino), he falls hard and is about to share his wealth with her until he learns that she and her husband (Gig Young), plan to steal the fortune from him. Walz' love quickly turns to thoughts of a brutal revenge.
Directed by S. Sylvan Simon, LUST FOR GOLD is actually two stories. There is the historical one, plus a modern tale in which Walz' grandson (William Prince) seeks the mine, only to be stalked by a mysterious killer.
This first-rate western is a mix of film noir and thriller.
