lanfranco c Soldier Blue thirty years before Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Okay western but nothing special. No matter the situation or how rugged the terrain Yvonne is never less than immaculately dressed. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Sympathetic frontier story, but fairly one-dimensional. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Programmatic, revisionist nonsense - but De Carlo is gorgeous in Technicolor and the battle sequences have a degree of excitement beyond the nostalgic charm. Alex Nicol plays at brash semi-villainy quite well, and the classic Black Hills locale is wonderful to see. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
