Bend Of The River

"I have this to say about Bend of the River. Julie Adams is THE most beautiful woman that ever lived, next to Rock Hudson. I've been making Julie Adams Voodoo dolls for years but she still hasn't called. Anybody got a phone # or email address or fingernail clippings I'd appreciate it.Back to the movie. Stewart and Mann, doesn't get much better than this. Especially when Jimmy showcases that trademark bi-polar streak that made their films so great. Arthur Kennedy is a real pain though. How'd that guy ever get into the movies anyway? Must be related to Joe. But, there's got to be somebody you hate-right? Well Arthur, I hate your guts. And I missed the end of Rancho Notorious, but I hope somebody shot you dead. So there. 5 lbs of jerky."

Bend Of The River

"Hey, all you DVD video lovers out there... why do buy DVD's to replace all our old VHS tapes? RIGHT! Extra features, restored prints, widescreen format. When will the studio money grubbers realize that releasing cheap, no thrills versions of our favorite classic movies is NOT the way to sell DVD's? 'Bend of the River' is a classic western and has always been one of my favorite films, but please don't waste your $ on this one. Wait for a truly proper release, not this cheap pan and scan, no features version. What a waste. Ditto for other recent Jimmy Stewart (equally no feature pan and scan) DVD releases of 'The Far Country', 'Destry Rides Again' and 'Shenandoah'.Movie = 5 starsDVD = 1 sorry star"

"I totally liked 'More'... Nestor Alemandros does excellent camera work as always, Mimsy Farmer is a complete babe, and there's lots of cool scenes of them getting high. And actually, it's a pretty accurate morality tale.. I don't think it falls for the 'reefer madness' stuff, buti**hows a starkly realistic descent into the nightmare of heroin addiction. I'm suprised the movie is not given a fair shake.. during the wild, get-high times of the late '60s, this is a great little film that shows the downside of drug culture without being preachy. And it's gorgeous to look at."

Buffalo Boy

"It's amazing!! scenery of landscapes are great!!! Story is really sad and much reflecting from the colonized time of Vietnam. Also having chance to see the big scale of many buffalos when they moved for foods!!The sound of water is beautiful when the buffalos moved on... Should be seen!!"

Bend Of The River

"I would like to echo the other reviews here ... Universal has done an incredibly shoddy job on this DVD. The film is a good one ... not as good as The Far Country, but a respectable and enjoyable Western by the reliable Anthony Mann. The picture quality is often poor, and why the movie had to be panned and scanned when it was not widescreen to begin with is beyond me. Cost can't be an excuse ... the Hammer DVD's of The Curse of Frankenstein and The Horror of Dracula by other studios were similarly priced yet far better in quality. Universal should be ashamed of issuing a classic Western in this condition. I want my money back!"

" I bought this video thinking it would be a complete unedited version. i was wrong its the same as the vhs version i also purchased from amazon.com. drug references are edited out and so are partial scenes. do not buy this video from amazon in vhs or dvd.i was fortunate to have rented an uncensored vhs copy from tower records a few years ago. now im stuck with two crap copies. i wish amazon had forewarned me before purchase.i will no longer buy from amazon."
