Posts from Dooley in thread „Broken Arrow (1950)“

    Broken Arrow was a good movie. Kinda corny, uh? But it was such a film that showed more of the diverse side of Stewart and how he could really handle a part when he made films. it wasn't his best but it was one that made westerns more two sided than it was before. When I say before, I am talking about having the good guys versus the bad guys mentality. This gave the indians a way that they were a people who wanted to protect what was theirs, and not let someone push them around.

    I like this movie because it showed Stewart in a role that he was going to bring peace when it seemed no one wanted it and it was against all odds. He was powerful in this.

    Couldn't agree more.
    Jimmy Stewart in the Anthony Mann Westerns, in particular the man from Laramie, is fantastic. Amazing it took till later in his career to show such a different side and to be convincing as a character so different to what we were used to.

    Thanks, Keith for reminding us this Jimmy Stewart movie. Don't have this one in our collection, but plan on getting it.


    It is avaliable from Amazon.com, Here, for around $12.00.

    Hi Chester,
    I bought the US release a month ago and the DVD is a good transfer!
    Highly recommend it.
