Nevada Smith on DVD (1965)

An epic western with a fascinating premise — a young man tracks down the outlaws who killed his white father and Indian mother — is suffocated by lethargic direction from veteran Henry Hathaway, though the film is redeemed by Lucien Ballard's lush photography and an outstanding supporting cast. Playing a younger version of the character played by Alan Ladd in The Carpetbaggers, a miscast Steve McQueen brings star presence to a film that was backed by his own production company, Solar, and became a major hit in its day.
Violent, sour, occasionally lively but frequently boring Western melodrama on a well worn theme. Members ReviewsReviews Voted Most HelpfulMost Recent Reviews |
