Review of The Tin Star (1957) by Irvin C — 13 Jul 2013
My further exploration of the filmography of Anthony Mann continues on with this TRULY remarkable film. I can't believe it isn't more popular. A young sheriff gets lessons in gun play and justice from an ex-sheriff-turned-bounty hunter.
Henry Fonda and Anthony Perkins are wonderful together. Exciting scenes are coupled with tackling themes of proper justice, racism and sexism and they're interwoven beautifully. It's got everything a great Western should have and MORE.
I couldn't recommend more highly.
