3:10 to Yuma (1957), directed by Delmer Daves. One of the great westerns. A deceptively simple story of a reluctant deputy trying to get an outlaw onto a train that will take him to jail.

Based on an equally good Elmore Leonard story. Glenn Ford and Van Heflin are both superb.

Wonderfully stark b&w cinematography.

#RIP #StellaStevens (1938–2023)

#Hollywood #actress at her peak in the 1960s, when, looking like a spicier #SandraDee, she was featured opposite #ElvisPresley in GIRLS! GIRLS! GIRLS! (1962), #JerryLewis in #TheNuttyProfessor (1963), and #GlennFord in PAPA'S DELICATE CONDITION (1964).

She's best remembered, however, for falling to her death in #RonaldNeame's #blockbuster #ThePoseidonAdventure (1972).

And for giving #CarolLynley a rock-hard slap in that same #movie.

The Man from the Alamo is a 1953 Budd Boetticher western with Glenn Ford as a man with a reputation for cowardice hanging over his head, a reputation he feels (with some justification) is undeserved.

An intelligent grown-up western and an exciting action-packed movie with fine large-scale action sequences.

This movie has a lot to recommend it including Mr. Perfect Movie Face aka Glenn Ford as well as (spoiler alert) a gang of old ladies murdering a would-be rapist with farm implements 👍🏼
