Free Western Movie: Silver Lode – Cowboy Movie – In Silver Lode, Dan Ballard is arrested by 4 Marshals for murder and theft but he denies the charges and searches for the real culprit even as the townsfolk start abandoning him.
Silver Lode (1954)
Director: Allan Dwan
Writers: Karen DeWolf (story), Karen DeWolf (screenplay)

Genre: Western
Country: USA
Language: English
Release Date: 4 March 1955 (West Germany)

Filming Locations: Republic Studios, Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, USA
Storyline:
Dan Ballard, a respected citizen in the western town of Silver Lode, has his wedding interrupted by four men led by Fred McCarty, an old acquaintance who, as a US Marshal, arrests Ballard for the murder of his brother and the theft of $20,000. Ballard seeks to stall McCarty while tracking down evidence that will prove his innocence: but the townspeople’s loyalty to him gradually begins to waver under McCarty’s accusations.
Reviews:
“The action starts with Dan and three other riders (Harry Carey Jr and Alan Hale Jr for gosh sakes… you know you’re in for a good time) riding into the town of Silver Lode on forth of July. They’re looking for the man named “Dan Ballard” but everyone they ask gives them the cold shoulder, one remarks they know a gunfighter when they see one. Turns out Dan is a federal marshal named Ned McCarty (other reviews have noted the McCarthy similarity and I agree with them on that) come to take Ballard — solidly played by John Payne — prisoner back to California for a murder rap. The victim is, it turns out, McCarty’s brother and there is also a matter of $20,000 stolen at the same time.
At first the town’s people are solidly behind Ballard but gradually they come around to bow McCarty’s assumed authority and turn against Ballard. This is done rather well, not nearly as heavy handedly as might be. Many reviewers have noted the similarity to “High Noon”, it’s sort of a “High Noon” in reverse. While that’s mighty high company the comparison is not out of line and the wonderful direction of Allan Dwan makes up for the lower production values. This is a good story, well made and worth looking for.” Written by smorrow2-1 on IMDb.com.
“Some have claimed how “impossible” it is not to compare this with “High Noon”. I haven’t seen “Noon” in years but this film was fresh in every way. Just to think of it – here is a collaborator with D. W. Griffith who has made more films during his successful career than any ten directors combined – and many of them Westerns! He was wowing audiences with his technical know-how long before “High Noon” was a twinkling in anyone’s eye. How much the villain and McCarthy have in common is more in the domain of the scriptwriter than the director, perhaps – after all, the scriptwriters got the shaft more often than anybody else during the witch hunts. This is a lively tale and it moves quickly. The colors are wonderful and the tracking shots vivid. Come to think of it, I might just prefer it. It doesn’t talk itself to death, but neither do the other Dwan films I’ve seen over the years.” Written by cstotlar-1 on IMDb.com.

Rio Lobo – After the Civil War, Cord McNally searches for the traitor whose treachery caused the defeat of McNally’s unit and the loss of a close friend.
Rio Lobo (1970)
Director: Howard Hawks
Writers: Burton Wohl (screenplay), Leigh Brackett (screenplay)
Stars: John Wayne, Jorge Rivero, Jennifer O’Neill
Country: USA | Mexico
Language: English | Spanish
Release Date: 2 April 1971 (West Germany)
Also Known As: San Timoteo
Filming Locations: Tucson, Arizona, USA
Storyline:
Bent on unearthing the cynical traitor who sold information to the enemy and caused the death of a dear brother-in-arms, the battle-tested former Union cavalry officer, Colonel Cord McNally, teams up with a pair of ex-Confederates after the Civil War. Now, as honest friends, the three companions ride into Rio Lobo–a dusty town in the middle of the desert overcome by corruption–to bring to justice the one who sold McNally out; however, the town is rife with the betrayer’s murderous cut-throats. Can McNally avenge his bosom buddy and clean up Rio Lobo?
Reviews:
“Rio Lobo is the final masterpiece by Howard Hawks. A great plot from the Civil War and after the war. The plot thickens when Christopher Mitchum and Jorge Rivero join with the Duke’s quest to find the Union traitors. After a big gold heist and mad chase it seemed like the rest of the story might be anticlimactic. However, Jack Elam and David Huddleston give uplifting stellar performances that keep the action at fever pitch. Victor French also gives a memorable performance as Ketcham, the villainous land baron. With all the wonderful performances Jennifer O’Neill as Shasta Delaney stole the show. She played the part of the woman fighting the good ol’ boys and the love interest of Jorge Rivero to perfection. John Wayne and Howard Hawks picked the finest cast for their final collaboration.” Written by frank4122 on IMDb.com
“Simply put, this is one of the greatest Westerns of the ’70s. And with the kind of clout it has, it couldn’t possibly miss.
Hawks’ direction, Brackett and Wohl’s script, Goldsmith’s score and even the legendary Yakima Canutt as second unit director all do their parts to make this one of the brightest and snappiest tales from the Old West ever.
Oh yeah, and the Duke’s in it, too. Comfortable as ever in a genre he basically dominates anyway, John Wayne (the great “re-actor”) makes every word he says and every action he takes as stalwart and as forceful as if he were taking to the screen for the first time.
Much has been made of how weak the younger actors are, but considering the circumstances, they do well for themselves (even a young Lansing, who would go on to bigger and better things beyond the camera).
The liveliest performance, though, is saved for good old Jack Elam, as looney as ever, and handy with a shotgun as well as mouth harp. He also has the best line: “Don’t mind if I shoot anyway, it makes me feel better.”
You’ll no doubt recognize a lot of faces in this film, and probably be surprised to see them there (yes, THAT George Plimpton) but in a film this big and this good, it looks like everyone wanted to get into the act.
And through it all, Wayne swaggers and shoots and helps save the Western way of life.
You have to admit, there ain’t nothing like the “Rio” thing!
Ten stars. Check out “Rio Lobo” but just because The Duke looks at ease here, don’t call him “comfortable”.” Written by Mister-6 on IMDb.com
“Terrific Wayne-Hawks Western, almost remake of RIO BRAVO, which happens to be the greatest Western ever made. This is great fun, loaded with action, lotsa comedy, great finish with the Duke, Elam, Mike Henry and the vengeful Sherry Lansing. And Chris Mitchum’s in there somewhere. My #4 film of ’70. Young people, if you wanna see a Bad John Wayne film, check out BARBARIAN AND THE GEISHA. If you’re lookin’ for a Bad Hawks movie – Stop. There ain’t any. Not even RED LINE 7000.” Written by keiljd on IMDb.com
