Rocky Mountain (1950)
Directed by William
Keighley this western stars Errol Flynn, Patrice Wymore and Scott
Forbes. During the US Civil War a group of Confederates in Union
territory are trapped by Native Americans.
There is not much
unique about the plot of this film which is disappointing as it comes
from a story by Alan Le May who also penned the novel behind The
Searchers (1954). In general the film is disappointing because it
never really tackles the subject of what the South was fighting for,
providing only a sanitized and romanticised view. The performances
and execution of the film are not bad but there was not much to work
with to begin with.
2/5
