Review of Texas

Texas (1941)
8/10
Celebrating Westerns and Texas..
21 March 2024
In this very fine movie I say Texas is as nearly good a western movie as any ever made. I can think of only a few better, but they are newer and in color and with more advanced techniques. You can't realistically expect movies decades later to have invented elements.

William Holden, Glen Ford, Clair Trevor and Edgar. Buchannon are as good as Hollywood ever had. Though in black and white the photography is amazing. The plot is extremely tight and well written. The director's ability is well known, famous and on target

We have the feel of the west, very good comedy all along and perfectly interwoven with drama. It's rare to have both at one time, much less this much talent and skills in one movie. Vive watched a thousand westerns and objectively know there are very few movies that combine it all very well. I've never forgotten Texas and never skip admiring it again. Theater students should study this movie.
