A Good Old Cowboy - The Last Wagon review by Cato
Richard Widmark gives a suitably restrained performance (always the cool guy), as the ex Indian warrior who has joined the white men again, helping the wagon train survivors who have found themselves besieged by those pesky Apaches. If you like your cowboy films this is a very good one, let down by the poor sound on the copy I watched, as well as the unlikely ending. Apparently Widmark actually hated guns in what he considered to be one of the greatest countries in the civilised world. Nothing's changed very much there then.
