Review of Hombre (1967) by Rocknblues 8 — 21 Oct 2013
Correlations between this and the seminal Ford western Stagecoach are certainly warranted. Yet the noble antihero is more apparent in this subtle & excellent film. Paul Newman plays a white man raised by Apache who must save his fellow passengers after a stagecoach robbery.
Although seemingly indifferent to the caucasian's plight, a frank but good-hearted woman recognizes the good that is in him all along. This is a superb character-driven film.
