Movie Title: Rio Lobo Rio Lobo is available for streaming or downloading. |
Rio Lobo is a excellent John Wayne western that borrows from several of his previous movies. The legend is about a Union colonel trying to regain out who the traitor was in his unit that sold information about gold shipments to Confederate guerillas. Along the intention he helps a town hasten the wrath of a rich landowner and a defective sheriff. The sage may seem similar, but this smooth is a very tantalizing movie. What John Wayne movie isn’t? The legend blends action and fable together in this bright western.
The Duke is gargantuan once again as Cord McNally, the Union colonel in pursuit of traitors. Jorge Rivero is awkward as Pierre “Frenchy” Cordona, the Confederate guerilla who helps Wayne. I don’t know whether it is actually Rivero talking or someone dubbing his lines in, but it objective sounds silly. Joining them are Jennifer O’Neill, Christopher Mitchum, Jack Elam, and Victor French. Elam is spacious as usual in his role as the eccentric feeble man in the town. The DVD has a helpful widescreen presentation that looks cleaned up compared to the one shown on TBS. Otherwise, there isn’t any extras added on. This was Howard Hawks last western, and he made a genuine one. Profitable chronicle and consuming action. Deserves a observe if nothing else for those who haven’t seen this behind Duke western!
By 1970, John Wayne had his Oscar in his pocket and Rio Lobo on some inspection looks like honest a lot of estimable, tidy fun he and the cast decided to have, with no particular regard for making cinematic history. The position rambles and has some implausabilities-like why does the Duke, who plays a Yankee, go home to Blackthorne, Texas? And Jorge Rivero as a Confederate officer takes some getting veteran to. Same thing, different reason, with Jennifer O’Neill. She seems too contemporary for a historic setting and her acting is questionable. However, by dogies, she is honest so gorgeous (and one of the hottest actresses in put a question to in the early 70’s) that she can be forgiven for any dramatic failings.

One of the strengths of the film is the Duke’s self-deprecating humor is in dazzling present, and so is John Wayne himself. Chisum, which was made about this time, is a better film in my estimation, but Mr. Wayne is practically relegated to a supporting player in it. In Rio Lobo he is in almost every scene and that alone makes it a pleasure to explore. Jack Elam hams it up and David Huddleston adds a nice touch of comedy. Trivia buffs will bask in Sherri Lansing (future studio head) in the arrive buff and George Plimpton, unusual off his Paper Tiger days, getting a bit role as a short-lived poor guy.
As for improving the movie, it suffers because the death of the lieutenant, which is the main motivating force for Wayne’s character to go after the poor guys, is miniature seen by the audience. We need to connect with this guy so we feel strongly that justice must be done. This character should have been played by a notorious actor in a cameo role. An determined choice would have been Patrick Wayne. Then the audience would know the character even though their presence onscreen is brief and originate a stronger emotional connection with them. Another thing is the sheriff of Rio Lobo is supposed to be a really mean hombre, but we don’t have enough scenes with him to set aside this. At the very least, a scene should be added where he brutally questions the Sherri Lansing character and scars her. It wouldn’t have to be graphic-just enough to once again emotionally connect with the audience.

Mr. Wayne’s DVDs are not getting the attention that his fans deserve! George Plimpton had a television special on making Rio Lobo-this should be an extra included. And, my gosh, The Alamo had 500,000 feet of film shot-some by John Ford. What do we fetch in bonus material? ZIP! NADA! JACKSQUAT! C’mon Hollywood, this is THE most critical film actor of the 20th Century! Gather off yer duffs and accept this stuff. This is HISTORY!
