Product Description

Product Description

Back in the saddle after such triumphs as Texas Across the River and The Sons of Katie Elder. Dean Martin hits the dusty road once again for another extraordinary Western adventure. It s the lawless Old West. One time lawman Alex Flood (Martin) is now the ruthless boss of the town of Jericho, a town he once helped to clean up. Now this officer gone bad has bullied his way into owning 51% of all of Jericho s businesses. All except the stagecoach line, run by widow Molly Lang (Jean Simmons), a stalwart hold out. In fact, she s managed to fend off Flood s romantic advances as well as his business extortion. Riding into town to help her is former Deputy U.S Marshall Dolan (George Peppard). But Dolan, figuring any confrontation with Flood or his men is a losing battle, refuses to take on the tyrant, giving Flood an even freer hand than before. As Molly and the townspeople turn to Dolan for help, how far will he allow Flood to push him before he finally fights back?

Pegasus have certainly upped their game recently. Some of their past transfers have been from some ropey old films where the picture quality has been abysmal. This one has no such problems. It has a good crisp picture and the colour is still vibrant. It is a pity that the film is so studio bound. The few outdoors shots are superb and the film would have been so much better with more of that. Never mind it is still not a bad effort at all. The film was described by Phil Hardy in his excellent "The Encyclopedia of the western" as morose and ponderous, which I find a bit harsh. I think it is a rather forgotten western that is definitely worthy of a DVD release.

The film in an unusual bit of casting has Dean Martin as the chief heavy who runs the town of Jericho with an iron fist. He dispenses justice in Judge Roy Bean style, with the usual result being a hanging before you have time to eat a sausage sandwich! Martin is intent on taking over the stagecoach line run by Jean Simmons, who hires former marshall John McIntire and his ex deputy George Peppard to help. Needless to say things hot up very quickly. In another unusual bit of casting the usually affable Slim Pickens gets to play a mean heavy with a bullwhip. The film is violent for its time, but not quite on a "Wild Bunch" level. Jean Simmons is good as the feisty stagecoach owner and Martin surprisingly good as a baddie. He should have done that more often! Peppard and Martin also get to have a few lively mano-a-mano exchanges before they inevitably go head to head at the films decent conclusion. Director Arnold Laven was the creator of the TV series "The Rifleman", which was developed by Sam Peckinpah. Laven also directed the very average westerns "Geronimo"(62) and "Sam Whiskey"(69). Peckinpah of course went on to far greater things, but Laven should be lauded for a decent enough job on this film. Not a classic but well worth watching! Keep em coming Pegasus!

Uneven (especially the first half), old fashioned (this would be comprehensively eclipsed by The Wild Bunch two years later) oater starring crooner Dean Martin (in his only villainous role), pre-A-Team, Pre-Banacek, George Peppard and a waning Jean Simmons. Ex-lawman Alex Flood (Dean Martin) controls the town of Jericho hanging dissenters, blowing up stores and generally acting the tyrant. Enter, George Peppard's stoic Dolan (he's only referred to by his surname) and his ageing partner Ben Hickman (John McIntire) who agree (after much persuasion) to help Molly (Jean Simmons) rid the town of Flood's mob of cronies and heavies which include the great Slim Pickens (Yarbrough). Dolan and Hickman are 'professionals' who start to dismantle Flood's empire with the help of town's citizens, the feisty Molly and the humiliated ex-sheriff (Ironside's Don Galloway). The first half of this film is pretty tedious (especially the drunk bit) but then about half way through (the brutal fight between Dolan and Yarbrough), it gets very good including a well directed shoot out in the town's saloon (worth watching for that alone), a gunfight between the town folk and Dolan's gang and a terrific game of cat and mouse between Dolan and Flood in a forest. The direction and performances are all adequate with a special mention going to character actor and western stalwart McIntire. I doubt it did much for the film careers of Peppard, Martin, Simmons, director Laven (he'd only make one more film, Sam Whiskey) or westerns in general because it's only slightly above average, is too studio bound and is hampered by a mostly awful, intrusive score (an important point in westerns). No western masterpiece (this won't get in your top ten) but good for a wet Sunday afternoon.

I recently bought Rough Night In Jericho, but on receiving it noticed on checking out the aspect ratio that it had been butchered from it's original 2:35:1 Scope aspect ratio to a derisory 1:33:1, cutting two thirds off it's width. I immediately returned it unopened to Amazon. After receiving the Jeff Chandler cavalry western, Pillars Of The Sky and found it to be in it's original Scope ratio, I thought Pegasus had turned a new leaf and actually respected it's customers, but no it's now business as usual. The frustrating thing is, it's so difficult to get hold of these dvd's here. It's a tragedy that companies like Universal, 20th Century Fox, Paramount, etc. no longer release their classic films on Region 2. They at least virtually always released their dvd's in their original aspect ratios.

A thoroughly B movie Western plot elevated by some surprisingly good performances into a perfectly enjoyable oater, this 1967 Western is probably most notable for having Dean Martin play the `bad guy', Flood. He is an ex lawman, that, for reasons never fully explained, has gone bad. The town he helped clean up is now ruled by him with an iron fist, and he has his stake in all the businesses in town - except for Molly Lang's (Jean Simmons) stagecoach. She brings in ex Marshall (John Mcintyre, adding some old style Hollywood class) and his ex Deputy Dolan (George Peppard) to run the stagecoach. When Peppard sees the mood in the town, he figures as a gambling man the odds are against him, and he decides to stay on the sidelines until he can leave. But how long will his conscience stay unpricked as the situation deteriorates around him..? The story is all `been there, done that', and the photography and music are very much Hollywood churning the latest of hundreds of Westerns - so it's slickly done, if uninventive, and yet it certainly has a surprising streak of violence in places. Someone shot in the face, fist fights to the death, Martin smashing a man's face off the bar until he is unconscious... perhaps the desire to compete with the European Westerns which were popular by this time?
On the whole though, Peppard is surprisingly amiable company, and holds his own against Martin, who is a show stealer with his role as Flood. Martin was not taken entirely seriously for his acting by many, and yet here he brings probably the only 3 dimensional character to the movie. Flood has charisma, is likeable to a point, is understandable, and yet has a mean streak and occasional temper that make you completely believe in the town being terrified of him.
