Movie Reviews of West of the Pecos

Movie Review: Sturdy vintage B Western
Summary: 3 Stars

Robert Mitchum got the best notices of his early career for his strong performance in the loose adaptation of the Zane Grey novel.He plays Pecos Smith a cowhand with a strong sense of right and wrong and who is at odds with the local vigilantes run by a man named Sawtell (Harry Woods).Sawtell is using the vigilantes as a front to carry out stagecoach robberies and Pecos is wise to this .He also comes to the aid of a party lead by Chicago based newspaper magnate ,Lambert (Thurston Hall) who is out west for health reasons .They are stranded in the desert when their wagon breaks down .One of the party is Lambert's headstrong but determined daughter ( a debuting Barbara Hale ,giving a strong performance).She is in disguise as a boy in order to forestall unwanted male attention ,a situation giving rise to much amusing misunderstanding.

Lambert joins Pecos in oppostion to the vigilantes and the scene is set for lots of well staged action in a lively and at times amusing Western that benefits from good performances all round
