Mr. OpEd

Was this about John Ford or how much the left hates Donald Trump? At about the 16 minute mark we find out.

It's been said that the left destroys everything it touches and that is certainly true again here. I couldn't watch anymore after the Trump bash where some rancher claims Trump never had to face anything like John Wayne did (guess the cow poker doesn't follow the news).

And the flaws in this bio are too numerous to mention, but here's just one. While discussing Stagecoach, the "film makers" show a photo of The Oklahoma Kid. I like Cagney and Bogart as much as Wayne and Stewart but the photo and film have nothing to do with John Ford. Guess they were too busy hating regular Americans to actually check their work.

If you want a real overview of Mr. Ford's work, check out Directed by John Ford: Directed by Peter Bogdanovich, an actual film maker covering an actual film maker, it's terrific.

Blindlingly boring found-footage/shaky-cam zero. I guess I'm lucky I didn't see the first one as most agree this is no where near as good. Heck, it's not good at all. If I wanted to see a bunch of 20 and 30 somethings get drunk and swear for hours at a time, I could do that in real life. On, and there's a dark place that is creepy. I think. It's downstairs so, you know, avoid it. Avoid this movie, too.

Don't know why this has such a low rating. Gorgeous Technicolor, rousing Frank Skinner score, top-notch model and process work, fast run time. The fist-fight scenes are well staged and bully for Donald O'Conner's action work, he actually looks like a real fencer! Add Helena Carter's captivating beauty and the tried-and-true mistaken identity plot and I think it's terrific entertainment.
