Excellent Trio

I have always loved old movies and most are the kind you can watch over again and again this is one of them! The last time I watched it I caught something new and thought was so cute Emmy (Maragret o'Brien)is dressing in a pretty dress to surprise Zed Bascomb (Wallace Beery)and her grandmother gives her two handkerchiefs and she tells her "Here is one for show and one for blow." I believe actors from this era were true artisan of their craft, something I find lacking in actors today.

For More Fun between Beery and Main I recommend Jackass Mail 1942 & Wyoming 1940. For You Margaret O'Brien fans one movie you must see is Our Vines Have Tender Grapes.

With Beery, O'Brien and Maine, who needs a plot?

Sure, this is just another horse opera, but who cares?

Wallace Beery is more entertaining just being Wallace Beery than most actors are with sparkling dialogue and auteur direction.

Magararet O'Brien: Shirley Temple she ain't! When people talk about child stars, they usually mention Jackie Coogan and Jackie Cooper; Mickey Rooney and Dickie Moore; Baby Peggy and Hailie Mills. Give me Margaret O'Brien any day.

Marjorie Main could lick her weight in Marie Dresslers, any day.

Pure entertainment!

Oh, for a colorized version!

This movie inspired Anthony Mann to make his own western using one of its themes (bad guy hides in/leads wagon train) in 1954, "Bend of the River". He uses the opening scene to pay homage to "Bad Bascomb", by having James Stewart ride up to a wagon and receive a piece of food from a little girl. This points to another theme which is actually dropped from Mann's movie - father hunger in action. This theme is handled well in "Bad Bascomb", without it being overplayed. I could especially identify with the scene where the kid overreacts to the adult's supposed lack of interest in what he thinks is a trivial moment. Margaret and Wallace both sparkle in this - if only they had made more movies together! The only disappointment to me is that there is so much wonderful scenery, and it is in black and white! Finally, what's the best way to attack a wagon train in a circle? Watch this movie and find out!

Bad Bascomb is a Classic & should be shown more often

Bad Bascomb is a true Western Classic. Wallace Beery was a great actor of his time; although there are other movies of his that my family and I liked, this one is the best.

Marjorie Main & Margaret O'Brien are also a great asset to this film. I am sorry to say this movie is not shown on TV very often and is not available on VHS/DVD; hopefully in the near future.

For all of you Wallace Beery fans, I am happy to report, I was e-mailed the other day from Turner Classic Movies, that this movie will be shown on TCM on Thursday, December 13th, at 6:00 pm ET; so have a new tape ready for this GREAT movie.

Thank You for your time!! JAL

Aw shucks! I reckon he ain't so bad!

Wallace Beery plays Bad Bascomb, the cuddliest outlaw in the West! He's a bank robber, a cattle rustler, and he's (oh my!) left-handed! But once he joins up with a wagon-caravan of Mormons--in order to escape the law--B.B. becomes humanized, a scoundrel with a squishy heart. This is a cute western with a warm theme, the best sequences involving Beery with teary Margaret O'Brien (they meet while he's stealing chicken). Marjorie Main is always fun to have around playing Bascomb's Mormon-intended. Strictly a formula film, sentimental and "nice", although some of the action scenes are sloppily-directed and there's some curious overdubbing (when O'Brien says to Beery, "Are you gonna marry her?", Beery answers, "You really are ill!" but his lips say "sick"). Still, quite enjoyable and with some very funny lines. *** from ****

Curiosidades
According to page 70 of "Notes For A Memoir", Janet Jeppson, second wife of Isaac Asimov, describes how she was acting as an extra in this movie on August 14, 1945, when Wallace Beery came out of his trailer to tell everyone on site that World War II had been declared over.

Bascomb said that he didn't want anything to do with marriage. But in one scene with Margaret O'Brien one can see Beery's wedding ring.

Citações
Zeb Bascomb: [after finding Emmy alone outside of camp] Why, Emmy.
Emmy: Go away, Zeke. Don't you dare touch me.
Zeb Bascomb: How do you know it's Zeke, honey? Why, you ain't even looked.
Emmy: I don't want to look. I don't want to ever see you. I just want to die.
Zeb Bascomb: That ain't no nice way to talk after all the trouble I had finding you. What made you skip out?
[He leans down to touch her]
Emmy: [Emmy turns with a shotgun] I'll shoot!
Zeb Bascomb: Well, I guess, ain't no use in asking for mercy once a woman's got her mind made up. I did think you had more feeling for me though.
Emmy: You said I was stealing and it ain't true.
Zeb Bascomb: Well, I know. I was wrong, I'm sorry.
Emmy: You were going to give me a belt in the snoot.
Zeb Bascomb: Well, I thought you knew that I was just testin' ya.
Emmy: What's testin'?
Zeb Bascomb: Seein' if you love me.
Emmy: Were you testin' when you pushed me and said you wanted me to catch the measles?
Zeb Bascomb: That is my number one test. Measles couldn't even light on you, you're too wiggly.
Emmy: You care for anybody special, Zeke?
Zeb Bascomb: What difference does it make? I ain't got long to live anyway.
Emmy: Maybe I won't shoot ya.
Zeb Bascomb: Well, what you got to do, you got to do.
Emmy: I don't know how to work this very good anyway.
[Hands him the shotgun]
Zeb Bascomb: You sure could have fooled me, alright.
Emmy: Would you have took the ring if grandma had give it to ya?
Zeb Bascomb: Why should I?
Emmy: She likes you. Why do you play cruel all the time?
Zeb Bascomb: Oh, why do you poison gophers?
Emmy: Will you marry her?
Zeb Bascomb: Now I know you're sick.
Emmy: Just sort of look after her. I may not always be around.
Zeb Bascomb: Yes, yes, you... You are gettin' mighty old. Mighty old. I kind of thought though that you was waiting for me.
Emmy: You wouldn't want a wart.
Zeb Bascomb: Didn't you know that I meant just the opposite?
Emmy: What's the opposite to a wart?
Zeb Bascomb: The op... It's a dimple, a pretty little dimple.
Emmy: A dimple?
Zeb Bascomb: Mm-hmm.
Emmy: You mean I'm a dimple?
Zeb Bascomb: That's right.
Emmy: I like that.
Zeb Bascomb: Sure.
