Hondo

If it would be only for Robert Taylor in his last western (and last of 33 years movies for MGM), this one has to be seen. Of course it's not one of the great westerns of all times, and the TV style of the sixties is quite obvious, but Ralph Taeger was as good as possible playing the character of Hondo after John Wayne in the 1953 John Farrow's classic. But for me, the real star here is Robert Taylor, bringing with him so many western's memories, from "Billy the Kid" to "Return of the Gunfighter", including highlights as "Ambush", "Westward the Women", "The Last Hunt" and "The Law and Jake Wade". This one was for him a farewell to the Old West, and he didn't miss it.
