8/10
Touch of red... in glorious colour
10 June 2009
Warning: Spoilers
Ah, the glamour and pure entertainment of Golden age Hollywood! Shapely saloon queen is caught in the middle of the Wyoming cattle war and between two men: suavely villainous gambler and distrusting sheriff hero. Red-haired Maureen O'Hara, the star of the picture among unknowns, and her dresses blaze in gorgeous 1950's Technicolor, and routine western shenanigans between cattle kings and new settlers are enjoyably went through. Script by Polly James and Herb Meadow is just an excuse to show beauty of O'Hara's heroine and her rosy cheeks, the scenery and glorious colours. Bad thing? No, not at all, on the contrary. Dennis Weaver, Sheriff McCloud from my childhood, has a minor role.
