Dallas, ciudad fronteriza

Gary Cooper has given us much much better in his career, for instance the awesome HIGH NOON or MAN OF THE WEST. This one is directed by the bland Stuart Heisler whose film have never excited me that much, except maybe I DIED A THOUSAND TIMES. That makes me think I should watch some of his stuff again. So this one, a Warner movie, remains a good western, but a but boring because so much predictable plot with foreseeable characters and also character study. I have it in French dubbled in my collection, and the characters - with American first names in the genuine movie - are named with FRENCH first names in the French version. Such a disgrace, replacing Will, Bryan, Blayde but Guillaume, Marcel - ha ha ha - or Julien. Why, why, why? In most other dubbed westerns that I have seen in my French movie goer life, American first names are kept. But not here. Ok, that doesn't remove the interest and quality of this movie, nor add however, but that bings a comic situation, totally weird. So, to summarize my review, this is a western to be watched for Gary Cooper's fans, but not one his best.
