Nothing n-ewe


The Sheepman (1958)

Directed by George Marshall this film stars Glenn Ford, Shirley MacLaine and Leslie Nielsen. A fast talking stranger moves into to cattle country wanting to graze sheep but the locals are not pleased with the idea.

Taking a very generic western plot there is not a whole lot original about this film. The only real variation here is that the tone of the film is a bit lighter than usual for the genre but it does not mix well with the supposedly serious story. For the most part this just another one off the production line of westerns.

2/5
