Put an end to the series but was ok
Bit rough but good seeing terry oquinn, and fairly tame compared to modern day fare
It is an old one but enjoyable
An excellent, crystal clear copy of this movie. I chose to download this and it was well worth the money. Thanks for the excellent service.
I can't thank David enough for my experience with rareandcollectibledvds. I had my money refunded straight away as the master file was corrupted. A couple of weeks later I received the DVDs that I had ordered. Many thanks David!
Good movie. Service good

Just out of curiosity, do you have Manequine or Savage Honeymoon

Quick to receive the DVD.

It was easy to order and delivered quickly.
I haven't had the time to view the film yet.
trailer looks good.
I like that it was delivered quickly and easy to order.
Milestone film from John Ford...One of his earliest talkies as well as the film debuts of Spencer Tracy and Humphrey Bogart..get a copy just for that !
A great film. Typical Bryan Brown. He is at home in his outback environment and is the star of the show..
Durbin has never been popular in Germany. I' m glad to have her (re) discovered ....
Great surprise - McCrea never touches a gun.
As i remembered it as a kid
Very poor quality dvd. Very disappointed with the sound and picture.
This Mesquiteer film is set in the modern west of the dustbowl and has some themes that John Wayne later used in McLintock. During the World War, the cattle country was converted to wheat and after the demand from Europe subsided after World War I a lot of farm land was left arid and abandoned. That is exactly what happened to American agriculture in the boom period of the Roaring Twenties where the farmers did not share the prosperity.
Along comes the New Deal and a lot of local political bosses took advantage of government relief programs to entrench themselves in power. Such a boss is played by LeRoy Mason who was one of the shrewdest villains I’ve ever seen in a western. In fact during the course of the film, Mason really outsmarts our heroes at every turn as they try to bring him down legally.
Anyway though the Mesquiteers are really subordinate to Red Barry who’s tired of having his family exploited by Mason and his gang. Circumstances make him turn outlaw and the chase for him is reminiscent of High Sierra a year later. In fact the just as Humphrey Bogart is referred to as Mad Dog Earle, Barry is called Mad Dog Parker by the radio and print media of the time.
High Sierra was an A film for Warner Brothers and this was just a quickie B western that probably didn’t get too much notice. It’s a pity that the production values were those of a B film because the story was very well done.
