Review of The Plainsman (1936) by Erich R — 17 Jun 2011
On the eve of Lincoln's assasination, Lincoln ponders what to do with 100,000 newly unemployed soldiers, businessmen discuss what to do about the loss of demand for guns at the end of the Civil War...it's the opening of the frontier and we're off to the races.
Wild Bill Hickox, Buffalo Bill, Calamity Jane...
The age-old battle of the sexes...
Cigareets, the latest fad from the East...
And Anthony Quinn's little debut, the famous Indian scene, in which during the filming he argued with DeMille, his future father-in-law.
