Review of Major Dundee (1965) by Ashley H — 25 Jan 2009
I kept noticing two things about this movie - besides being incredibly great beyond its being dated: character and sculpting of the scenes. The actors were able to portray men of character so well that you can see it a mile away.
It was good to see after so many years of the new breed of pale Hollywood male stars. The movie was amazing visually. Sam Peckinpah was a master at his craft utilizing every bit of the screen's area.
After a while, the movie seems to weaken in its plot. Scenes seem to be thrown together and it takes a weird turn. The writing is disjointed. My guess is that someone else took over the direction of this movie.
