Amazon.comGeneral George Armstrong Custer has been portrayed as everything from a vain but ultimately honorable hero (Errol Flynn in They Died with Their Boots On) to an insane, pompous incompetent (Richard Mulligan in the biting Little Big Man), but few have attempted an ambitious look at the man in all his contradictions. Robert Siodmak's Custer of the West, his final American production, attempts the task with fine results, portraying the career soldier as a pragmatist, a disciplinarian with a bullying streak, a loner, and ultimately an Old World romantic in the modern age. Robert Shaw gives the role a regal bearing (though his continental accent keeps drifting in) and a sense of dignity, depicting a man who ironically identifies more with the Indians than with the U.S. Army. Jeffrey Hunter and Ty Hardin costar as his battling junior officers and Robert Ryan is memorable in a brief appearance as a gold-mining deserter. Shooting in handsome widescreen and vivid Technicolor, Siodmak makes his outdoor settings come alive and nimbly handles the many action scenes, most notably a chase that sends an escaping soldier whooshing down a log water chute like a Disney ride. Siodmak's sweeping visuals deliver both grand images and ironic counterpoint, but ultimately Custer of the West eschews the heroism of Hollywood adventures for a portrait of the corrupt state of the American military and one man's hopeless fight against it. --Sean Axmaker

Amazon.comA fast-paced, entertaining lark of a film, The Outlaw is known today mostly for the buoyant performance of Jane Russell, whose career was engineered by the film's director, Howard Hughes, otherwise infamous for his reclusive millionaire ways. But more than that, the film boasts a set of finely tuned performances in the retelling of the story of Billy the Kid (Jack Beutel), whose burgeoning friendship with Doc Holliday (Walter Huston) arouses an intense hatred in Sheriff Pat Garrett (Thomas Mitchell, arguably the greatest character actor who ever lived). As Rio, Doc Holliday's girl, Jane Russell creates an irrepressible presence that lends an ample foundation to the story when her affections for Billy cleave his relationship with Doc. There are enough psychosexual rumblings to go around that the pace never sags. --Jim Gay

Amazon.comNot so much a spaghetti Western as a Gazpacho Western, from Spanish director Eugenio Martin, starring Telly Savalas, very funny and effective as the charismatic Mexican revolutionary, Pancho Villa. The story follows Villa's campaign to overtake General Goyo and thus take over the Mexican government, along the way invading the land of the "gringos" to replenish his weapons. Largely played for laughs, Pancho Villa wanders here and there, but remains fairly entertaining throughout. Chuck Connors deserves special mention as the martinet Colonel Wilcox, who at one point has a mess tent full of officers chasing a single fly, because, you know, a dirty army is an inefficient army. Connors receives the best entrance of anyone in the film: an extreme close-up profile of his enormous chin. It's Colonel Wilcox's single-minded zeal that results in a two-train head-on collision at the film's finale that would make Gomez Addams envious. --Jim Gay
