DVD Reviews of Stagecoach

DVD Review: Great movie
Summary: 5 Stars

OK, it's not the original. Step back a minute - few movies at ALL before or since the original verison of "Stagecoach" were as good as that movie. Now, move on and look at this version of "Stagecoach" on its own.

It's pretty well written and acted. (June Carter Cash's lines were great, "There's nothing in my contract says I got to feed the Army.") A lot better than most of what I see appearing in the theater today, most of which I won't waste my money to go see.

The only characters I didn't really like were Elizabeth Ashley's Dallas & Mary Crosby's Mrs. Mallory. I loved Elizabeth Ashley in a lot of other roles, especially in "Evening Shade" with Burt Reynolds. I know she's a great actress, but this role, or maybe her dialogue, just didn't work for me somehow. Too overdone. I do like her line to Doc about his fingerprints.

Mary Crosby, a good actress, too, said she campaigned to get this role, because her Dad was in the 1966 version. I understand that. I just thought her character was too bitchy for a Southern lady, especially an Army wife. Again, though, that's the way the dialogue was written, so I guess she was stuck with it. The scene playing as I write this is a good one for her, where she finds out her husband has been wounded. She's strong, but not complaining or bitchy.

The humor is a little dry throughout, you have to pay attention. It doesn't walk up and hit you over the head. And there's no 13 year old talking back at his or her elders for laughs. Maybe that's why it appeals to me.

John Schneider does a great job as the coach driver. Again, not Andy Devine, but, he doesn't try to be. And if he did, it would be ridiculous.

Half the fun of watching this movie is saying, "Oh, there's ______!" spotting other country singers or actors.

Then there's the old saying we use in our household: "It's a western, how bad can it be?"
