Nobody ever did real night stuff in westerns, despite the fact that all the various fake solutions for it looked like shit in colour. No actual cannibalism, but Walter has his teeth in for the role so it’s not technically impossible.įord’s section - on the civil war - lacked a plot but had some impressive night-for-night shooting (or maybe dusk-for-night, some of it), even more impressively matched with some fake studio exteriors.
Buffalos!Īlso - Walter Brennan as Sawney Bean! Patriarch of a bandit family operating out of a cave, a sequence with a lot of backwoods spook atmosphere. At first Fiona felt she would be unable to endure staring at the world as if between two jet-black buttocks, but then she got sort-of used to it and actually enjoyed the movie more than I did. And I’d never watched anything in smilebox so I did. I would have liked to own the Cinerama documentary, but I’ve seen it so I’m good. In fact, what I bought was disc 2 of 2, so all it had on it was the “smilebox” version of the film, which “recreates the Cinerama experience” in roughly the way that squirting acrylic paint in your eyes replicates a trip to the Louvre.
I bought HOW THE WEST WAS WON from a charity shop for £3, or I thought I did.
