Review of Ride the High Country (1962) by Mike P — 15 Jan 2008
Beautiful wewstern from Peckinpah. Ride the High Country touches on alot of themes Peckinpah would later refine in The Wild Bunch and others. But he does it best in The Wild Bunch. Thats not to say Ride the High Country isnt without merit.
Its a damn good western and one of the best for its time. Joel McCrea and Randolph Scott kick major acting ass here. Iam not that found of Mariette Hartley, but she was pleasent enough in this. Highly recommended to all Packinpah fans.
