Sweeping! Radiant! Corny! Romantic! A west that never existed is splashed across the veil as only David O. Selznick, the master of such grand Hollywood classics as “Gone With the Wind”, “Since You Went Away” and “Rebecca” could give us.
This is not the revisionists west of the 1990’s, nor that West of the gritty operatic glamour of Sergio Leone’s “Once Upon A Time In The West.” You will not gather the spare desirable and lean beauty of John ford’s West. What we have here is the memoir telling on a hide that screams to be stretched into widescreen and spills out over the audenience the lush and romantic horse Opera of Pearl Chavez, the McCanles clan and the coming of the railroads in the 1880’s.

From the moment the overture replete with unneeded narration begins you know you are in for a melodrama of purple emotions and blood red vendettas. The opening scene is situation in a saloon on a scale of a new Vegas casino. There amidst the wild gunfire of overheated cowboys and insanely spinning faro wheels we are introduced to the Scarlett O’Hara of the West, half-breed Pearl Chavez. As played by Jennifer Jones she is honest about the hottest tamale to ever hit the pages of a screenplay expressly written to drive men angry, turn brother against brother and defy a “Sinkiller”. What Jane Russell was supposed to be in “The Outlaw” we fetch in Technicolor spades in the develop of Miss Jones.
She takes great hefty bites of the massive sets and chews them to a fare thee well and in the process creates a wanton nymphomaniacal character of such charm, heat and passion that she is truly a motion record recent. This is the best thing Miss Jones ever did because it is so out of control and beyond the pale of her more subdued performances. Of saints, teenage war brides and ghosts of lost admire.
As Lewt McCanles we salvage the hottest, meanest, most excitingly snide performance Gregory Peck ever was allowed to give. And what an irresistible unpleasant boy he is. He was never sexier or more fantastic than in this departure from the Peck norm.
Even the usually stupid Joseph Cotton manages to rise above his typically dry rolls, but not too grand, in the thankless roll of the fine brother. He seems a shrimp too frail for the allotment and a limited too polished. Someone like Charlton Heston might have been more on the location.

Lillian Gish steals every scene she is in with quite assuredness and only finds completion from the ever-prissy Butterfly McQueen. In her final scene with Lionel Barrymore Miss Gish makes off with the scene so quitly that you are hit with it’s impact only after the fact. Barrymore creates one of his most beloved curmudgeons as Senator Jackson McCanles elephantine of sound and furry and ultimately signifying less than nothing. His introduction to Pearl topped by a sneeringly horrible racial slur that encapsulates his character and time and site.
Another highlight is the cameo by Walter Huston as “The Sinkiller”. What can be said of him is only this, pure cinematic magic.
The film unfold with such a sense of grandeur and terror that it sweeps you along to its fabulous ending on the wings of fable pure camp poetry. The Dimitri Tiomkin catch is a masterpiece and distinguished celebrated over the years for the wonderful call of the bells space fragment.
The three cinematographers enthusiastic, Hal Rosson, Ray Rennahan, and Lee Garmes paint movie memory after memory with the palate of hot dusty hues that have long been forgotten by audiences of today. To glance it now is perhaps more spellbinding and thrilling than it was in 1947.
All of this excited mixture of melodrama, mush and music was orchestrated by the master showman of his time, the ultimate huckster of smoke and mirrors and consummate barometer for unbiased what we wanted in our early epics of the America that never existed, David O. Selznick, who added the “O” to his name unbiased because it looked better on the marquee. When they say that off heard lament “They don’t make’um like they obsolete to.” Both Mr. Selznick and “Duel In The Sun” are what they are talking about. If they mild made them like this then something would be terribly horrible. Thank god they did produce films like this once upon a time and we collected have them to lose ourselves in a dream of what never was and what will never be again.
This first-time-ever release of the new Roadshow Version of DUEL IN THE SUN is definitive both as to length and features as well as to its glowing current peruse. The Overture and Exit music, by the gargantuan Dimitri Tiomkin, prepares the viewer for this overblown, extravagant, and overlength Western. The narration during the Overture places the film in its historical context, and foreshadows the filmmakers’ concerns with the Production Code Administration of the day. This film wasn’t known as “Lust in the Dust” for nothing.

That this film is overdone in almost every respect shouldn’t for one puny discourage the steal of DUEL. Its gargantuan cast–including a surprisingly atypical performance by the gargantuan Walter Huston as the “sin killer” preacher–is well worth seeing. While the film is overlong, the costly restoration work that has gone into this edition makes it a visual treat that, for the first time, accurately reveals the high standard of craftsmanship insisted on by its producer David O. Selznick. The colors are so spirited and upright that they seem to jump out from the camouflage. If you are a fan of this film–as something of a “guilty pleasure”–you’ll throw away the previous video release of this film with gusto. There is absolutely no comparison whatsoever. The 5-star rating is primarily for how pretty it looks than for the tale itself. This is what sizable Technicolor could do during Hollywood’s Golden Age. The trailers, also included in this edition, execute this a gargantuan package.
