Best movie of this year hands down!

Very best movie i ever watch

Excellent but underrated film

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

TCM is going crazy. First, 'Beat the Devil,' worst Bogart film ever made. When I get to Heaven and meet Bogie, I will not bring this title up for fear he'll send me to hell.Next, they air 'Jubilee Trail,' not a western; rather a bad soap opera(was there ever a good one)? I wrote TCM about their frequent repeats, concentrating too much on 'stars,' and failure to air 'cult' films, black (dark) comedies and sexy foreign movies, with stars such as Judy Geeson ('....round the Mulberry Bush), Brigitte Bardot (anything), Nicole Aubrey (Seven Deadly Sins - which I have on DVD). Also, what about 'Montenegro,' best dark comedy I have ever seen.If TCM airs movies uncut, let's see some sex and nudity, not the American version of foreign films.As for 'Jubilee Trail,' thumbs w-a-a-a-a-a-y DOWN!

Vera Ralston is wonderful in all her films. She adds character and a radiance to all her parts. Her accent is delightful. Charles Reichenthal, who left a previous comment criticizing Vera Ralston should be ashamed of himself. I was always taught that, "if you have nothing good to say about a person, don't say anything at all." There is nothing better than the old movies. Today's actors don't know the meaning of the word. Vera Ralston and all the others were wonderful in the movie and it's a movie well worth your time. I suppose "Charles" would say the same about Oscar winner Norma Shearer since she had Irving Thalberg.

This is a wonderful story which was the most poorly cast movie I've ever seen. I've read the book 20+ times in my life (obviously a favorite!) but the casting person obviously didn't waste their time doing the same even once. The book has rich characters which the movie didn't bring out. Overall, terribly disappointing. Florinda was the blonde, not Hispanic. Garnet had the black hair (I guess in the movies in those days, blondes were the good girls and dark hair was the bad...kind of like the white hat/black hat cowboys!A perfect cast (impossible because of age differences) would have Gary Cooper as John, William Shatner as Oliver, Kirk Douglas as Texas and James Cagney as Oliver's brother, to name a few! That's just part of my dream cast.My advice is to go get the book from the library!

Lavish Republic western with good female cast.Joan Leslie and Vera Ralston are most effective as two women heading to California to make a new life.Joan's husband is killed,Vera finds work as an entertainer,barkeeper.There's a load of familiar faces in the character parts.The costumes are nice.The settings lavish.Republic made alot of strong women films with a western setting.It was nice seeing women finally being more than just dutiful wives and saloon girls.Republic had a way of making realistic settings,costumes.The men in the story actually look dusty after a long ride.The Victor Young score is very nice,including the title song.This film is usually dismissed as just another Vera Ralston film but it's Joan Leslie's story.
