Montana gold

 

The Hanging Tree (1959)


Directed by Delmer Daves this film based on the novelette of the same name stars Gary Cooper, Maria Schell, Karl Malden and Ben Piazza. During the Montana gold rush a new doctor sets up in town.


This is a pretty average western, the characters have a little depth to them which is nice. Everything goes pretty much as you would expect, no surprises here. Slightly disappointing is that George C. Scott in his first film role is relegated to such a small part.


3/5
