(1958) The Badlanders.
ACTION/ WESTERN.
After my fourth viewing after many, many, years, this film still holds up quite well about two unlikely candidates Alan Ladd and Ernest Borgine succumb to working together for some 'poetic justice' by robbing a gold mine!! Alan Ladd whose best known from the movie "Shane" and Ernest Borgenine known from "The Wild Bunch" star together in this unlikely classic was directed by Delmer Daves who directed the original "3:10 to Yuma"!! Enjoyable with a superficial ending!! The film has similar themes to Burt Kennedy's 1967 "War Wagon" starring John Wayne and Kirk Douglas!
4/4.
