Title: How the west was spun
Review: Clunky is the nicest term I can apply to this Oscar winning film. Dated, is another good term to describe it. I've seen it twice and don't have plans to watch it ever again. There is only one good sequence in this overlong western: the land rush. Unfortunately, that's at the beginning of this long epic and what follows is riddled with clichés and bad acting. Stereotypes abound, the dialog is patently silly, the Oscar nominated performance by Richard Dix has to be seen to be believed. (Nothing about his performance is natural or lifelike. It's a cartoon: his wild eyes perpetually crazy, his head jerking as he struck these florid poses to bloviate the dopiest dialog ever imagined. This was not method acting, unless, there was method to his madness?)I only enjoyed the incomparable Edna May Oliver as the local busy body; everything else was just tedious and dull.Not a keeper because there are much better westerns to be had.
