barbara b Black Watch is an early collaboration between Director, John Ford and actor John Wayne. If you blink your miss the Duke's scene. The main star of this 1929 film is another member of Ford's actor's troupe Victor McLaughlin. Some interesting structure but a standard early talkie. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member good actioner reminded me of "gunga din" Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member good stuff myrna as a vamp!
