•BLAZE GLORY (1968),
Nutty EVIL ROY SLADE (1971) -ish Western parody, with the voice of Ted (ADDAMS FAMILY) Cassidy. 11 mins. RM
•SONG OF THE PRAIRIE (1951),
Amazing JIRI TRNKA animated puppet drama, in glorious colour, is the verisimilitude of a Hollywood western, replete with such amusing horse-opera stereotypes as the crusty old whisky-swilling stagecoach driver (a la GABBY HAYES), an evil, moustachioed ZACHARY-SCOTT-like villain, innocent heroines and singing heroes! An absolute delight! 15 mins. ALC
•STAGECOACH (1938),
|
~ 9PM -
The much-imitated classic which cemented the careers of both JOHN WAYNE and JOHN FORD ( - and the film ORSON WELLES screened repeatedly to study the art of cinema).
Under threat of Apache attack, a motley group of travelers in a small New Mexico town (including JOHN CARRADINE and Thomas Mitchell) board the Overland Stage bound for Lordsburg. Along the trail, they pick up the Ringo Kid (WAYNE), an outlaw who has escaped from prison to take revenge on those who destroyed his family and framed him for murder. As their journey progresses, the hypocrisy of the supposedly respectable passengers becomes clear, and it’s the tainted outsiders who display courage and humanity.
A perfect piece of film-making - each scene perfectly measured - the whole enterprise runs like clockwork. 95 mins. ALC
