PUNQ

Rated 13 May 2017

Another version of "Wild" Bill Hickok's life. Doesn't bring anything new to the western genre, but when it was 'on' it was a pretty spectacular film. Unfortunately it takes a while before things really gets going, but Bruce Cabot puts on a likable performance and Constance Bennett showed that she still had something to offer as a leading lady, even if those days were slowing down. And with Warren William there as the main villain, you know it's going to be a good time out west.
