Review of The Hallelujah Trail (1965) by Timothy M — 22 Jul 2010
Very disappointing. Lee Remick in a bathtub is one of the few redeeming features. Lancaster and Pleasance do well, but the rest is just a wash. At 2 1/2 hours, it's exceedingly tedious, unfunny, and most certainly not a demonstration of "how the west was fun.
" The cinematography is quite good, but Sturges just isn't suited to the material at all. I guess there's a reason that "Sturges comedy" doesn't refer to John.
