VHS Movie Reviews of Walk the Proud Land [VHS]

Movie Review: Good but frustrating Western
Summary: 3 Stars

This was Audie Murphy's first movie after the very successful biopic of his own life "To Hell and Back" and he is once again playing a true life character ,the first agent to the Apache Indians ,John Philip Clum .The movie has two strands .The least interesting -and indeed it drags the movie down to a soggy soap opera at times -is his domestic situation and the discord between Clum and his wife .These scenes are neither well written nor well played and take up time that would more interestingly have been spent in examining the second strand of the picture ,Clum's relationship with the Apaches in general and Geronimo in particular .These scenes are altogether better written and acted and a deal more interesting .

The performances are variable ;neither Murphy not the usually sparky Pat Crowley (as his wife)are at their best and the casting of Anne Bancroft of all people as an Apache widow is bizarre to say the least .However ,Jay Silverheels -who had played the role twice before in movies-is excellent as Geronimo and their are good contributions from Charles Drake as a warm ,sympathetic cavalry sergeant and Robert Warwick as a resigned and dignified elder chieftain .The colour is that beautiful ,burnished technicolor ,once commmon but now only too rare in a cinematic age of less subtle colour tones

This is a good and worthwhile picture but more focus on Clum's work and less on his domestic problems would have made it a minor classic perhaps
