Featured review
And I am not sure that everything here is accurate; anyway I don't consider it as a western. I did not find it interesting at all, it is destined to film goes to fill in their knowledge in terms of films, that's all. It is mostly talk, talks, the kind of films that Republic Pictures gave us in the late forties. I prefered Frank lloyd for MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY, IF I WERE KING or RULERS OF THE SEA; after all, Frank Lloyd was a sea adventures film maker, not a western one. I prefered his LAST COMMAND, his last movie. But this one is an epic film, which tells a part of American history. As a French, Hmmm.
