A rodeo trail?
14 June 2007
Warning: Spoilers
After having seen some of Waynes other hour-long Lone Star films,i feel that while this is not the best one its still pretty good.

The plot: After having done his day working as a rodeo,Wayne and a friend go to collect there wages.When they are told that there wages have gone down from $900 to $200,Wayne decides to hold the place up and get the rest of the cash thats owed to them.Just after they leave,a gang come in come in and kill the guy at the front and take the the cash and leave fast!So everyone thinks that Wayne and his friend killed him(and that includes the law!) View on the film:

The film is written by Linsley Parsons,and while the story does get slow in some parts,there are enough dark and comic parts to keep you watching.Direction:One of the downsides for director Cullen Lewis is using some really poor stock-footage of a Rodeo,but the thing Lewis does well is to have stunts (the man getting chucked thought a window by a horse!)and a really good star on a stage coach. The cast: The main highlight of the cast(and of the film)is John Wayne.Unlike some of the other Lone Star films i have seen with him,he gives an excellent comic and slightly dark performance. Final view on the film: A enjoyable film,with a very good performance by Wayne.
